The best books of all ...

Melvyn Bragg has addressed the question as to what are The world's best books. Readers of the Sunday Times have responded.

Of course, his list is really of 12 books that changed the world. Which is also the title of his latest book. Looking at the list it seems to me that a number of them aren't exactly the sort that come to mind when we think of "best books."

  2. And a lot of those things on the first list aren't "books," really. They're scientific papers or pamphlets or documents.
