There are a few books that changed my life. The Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys series introduced me to reading. Mutiny on the Bounty and A Seperate Peace introduced me to more mature reading, as did the authors Kahlil Gibran and Hermann Hesse. The Muckrakers stirred my desire to be in a helping profession. Numerous self-help books stirred my psyche, and numerous spritually inclined books, such as A Return to Love stirred my soul. The two books that literally changed my life were read in the last decade: First, "The Artist's Way" and Second, "The Courage to Heal." Unique, all of Julia Cameron's books are now available via paperback. The Artist's Way is one to buy and keep. Someday, I wouldn't mind faciliated the Artist's Way course on the boomer site. LLL
