That's certainly true, but are there any books that made a particularly big impact on you? I read Dan Brown's The DaVinci Code, and the only impact on my life was that I now avoid Dan Brown.
I'm also going to add On Intelligence to my list. It's a fairly short and mostly readable book on how consciousness arises in the brain; it certainly changed how I think about the brain and what consciousness really is.
