Chinese Herbal Medicine
Author: C.P. Li, M.D
Many Chinese herbal remedies have been proven to work, but have not been adopted into Western medicine to any degree. Most of the natural medicines described in this book are from ancient sources. They were developed at a time when China prohibited foreigners and chose to remain isolated from the world. Today we are discovering how valuable many of the early Chinese medical breakthroughs are. This well researched book was written by a scientist.

The Idea of the Holy
Author: Rudolf Otto
Translation: John W Harvey
This book is considered a classic in the field of religious philosophy. Its timeless message explores the idea of what we mean by what is holy and what is God. It was Otto who coined the term “numinous” in this book by attempting to define the first-hand experience of our deepest, non-rational moments of awe in the presence of God. When one has a direct confrontation with transcendent powers, it creates a starting point for the numinous experience. Otto presents all of the different ways in which one may experience the numinous.
The book is primarily grounded in philosophy and Christian theology, but presents the same general framework in other religions, as well. Many consider this work to be challenging, primarily because it succeeds in defining something that is beyond words. For this, the world is grateful–and has therefore made Otto’s book accessible throughout the years to those who hunger for its powerful and mysterious message.

The Prince
Author: Niccolo Machiavelli
He was an Italian diplomat, historian and political theorist who wrote this book around 1513. In 1512 the Medici’s came to power and he lost his post in Florence.
He wrote this in a possible effort to win them over and get back into politics. It is now the world’s most wellknown political book, considered the first written on modern political philosophy, where effective truth is more important than abstract ideals. Therefore, immoral means are acceptable if used to achieve the aims of princes and politicians.
This may have been necessary at the time, but people like Diderot and Jean-Jacques Rousseau considered The Prince to be more of a satire. Whatever its purpose, it is one of the most brilliant books ever written.
