Philosophical reading
#1
Question 
Philosophical reading
Having recently begun a lifelong dream of a vast library of philosophy/theoretical psychology/sociology/anthropology books, I am now wondering what particular works I should procure. Thus I cast the floor open to all you folks at AF, what partcular works would you consider to be necessary or what are your favourite books within the aforementioned categories?

I'd like to start by saying that my current favourite book within these categories is the Groundwork for the metaphysics of morals by Immanuel Kant. Now it's your turn, folks Big Grin
Religion is an attempt to answer the philosophical questions of the unphilosophical man.
