    Reading thought provoking/enriching/entertaining books and putting learnings into practice can be good for a man imho (if he likes reading that is). There are also great audio books and videos. Whether I agree with the author or not imho its good to stimulate the brain and can help one’s self development as a MAN. A man is much more than an animal. Some I read in the past couple of years include:

    Mastery – Robert Greene
    The Climb – Anatoli Boukreev (a fascinating account that contradicts Jon Krakauer’s book about that Everest expedition)
    Call of the Wild – Guy Grieve (about his experience living in remote Alaska)
    Tyson – the undisputed truth
    Trump – Think like a Billionaire
    Natural Highs – Patrick Holford (natural foods/substances etc that improve wellbeing/state of mind)
    Who Moved my Cheese – Spencer Johnson
    Confessions of an Economic Hitman – John Perkins
    Finn MacCool – The legendary Hero of Old Ireland / Brian Boru Emperor of the Irish (novels)
    Anthony DeMello – Awareness (Demello was a Jesuit priest also with some understanding of wisdom of the Eastern texts)
    Rethinking Darwin – Lief Anderson (a fascinating read for those interested in the subject)
    How to lose friends and alienate people by Toby Young (is blue pill nonsense but it made me laugh).
    Change your Life in 7 days – Paul McKenna (self improvement stuff)

    The Holy Christian Bible
    The Bhagavad Gita – As it is (a Holy text from the tradition of Hinduism/ Vedism/ Vaishnaivism)
    Entering the Tao – Master Ni’s Guide for Self Cultivation
    Beyond Illusion and Doubt – A Vedic perspective on Western Philsophy
    Tao te Ching – Lao Tsu
    The Lone Samaurai – The Life of Miyamoti Musahi
    Sun Tzu for Execution – How to us the Art of War

    What books have you been reading ? I like reading and appreciate good suggestions from fellow MGTOW. Cheers.

    Meditations – Marcus Aurelius
    Man’s Search for Meaning – Viktor Frankl

    And a lot of books on this Amazon best seller list on Philosophy you can’t go wrong on most of the books people will list you can find here as well.

    Best seller list.

    Already stated but The Holy Bible King James Version (KJV) this is important as the others that come after it are not to be trusted as the translations are off for a reason.

    Meditations – Marcus Aurelius

    Really good book !!

    Also would add

    On shorteness of life – Seneca
    Animal Farm – George Orwell
    1984 – George Orwell
    Atlas Shrugged – Ayn Rand
    Metamorphosis – Kafka
    The Trial – Kafka

    Reading those books in a Red Pill/MGTOW point of view, make you think “I miss the times were Orwell was just fiction”. “The Trial” is one book that I never “lived” it, but several brother here did, and I can only imagine the s~~~ nightmare that it is.

    Other books would depend on what you like, but if you are into science give it a try:

    Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica – Newton
    A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism – Maxwell
    The Cuckoos Egg – Clifford Stoll (as crazy as the book sounds, this is not fiction !)
    Art of Electronics – Paul Horowitz

    Newton & Maxwell books are really outdated by todays standards, but is better IMHO to start by them, it will give you a look on “how things started”, not only the solutions and formulas that you are presented if take an recent book and just read it.

    Unbroken – Laura Hillenbrand

    It’s one of the most inspirational biographies I’ve ever read.

    Read the first chapter and I dare you to try and put it down.

    The greatest tragedy in life is to spend your whole life fishing only to discover that it was not fish you were after. - Henry David Thoreau

    Great suggestions posted. Cheers.

    A brave New World – Adous Huxley

    This I believe – E. F. Schumacher (essays on materialism and practical/sustainable societies)
    The Spirit of Science – Frank Lorimer (synthesis between science and spiritual perception)
    Dune – Frank Herbert (science fiction)
    Glory road – Robert Heinlein – (science fiction / fantasy)
    William Gibson – Neuromancer (not so well written imho but was conceptually interesting when it came out)
