What is one book that has changed your life? How?

Posted on Mar 23rd, 2007 by Gaia Team : Gaia Team Gaia Team

Do you remember the first book you ever read? What about the most life-changing? Whether it was the magical world of C.S. Lewis' Narnia Chronicles or the first time you sat down with one of Ken Wilber's books; whether it was Eckhart Tolles' Power of Now or Anne Frank's Diary, we'd love to hear about whose words most powerfully affected you. (And if you can't pick just one, sharing a few is fine. :)
