Books, nothing like them, by themselves they can tell a story or educate. Collectively, through syntopical learning, they can transform the course of history. This venerable canon of literature tracks ancient books to more modern books such as On the Origin of Species. From the Epic of Gilgamesh, Bhagavad Gita to the Quran and the Communist Manifesto, just a super collection of classics like Dante’s Devine Comedy to less known books like The Analects. The history of each of these books are fascinating, many telling stories that were later included in the bible.
