Sheesh, Darwin's Black Box gets on somehow, yet Atlas Shrugged or Fountainhead doesn't make the cut. Ridiculous.

Actually, if you're going for simply the most influential books, Morris & Whitcomb's The Genesis Flood did for young-earth creationism what Silent Spring did for envirowhakoism. Darwin's Black Box is a sideshow by comparison.

This list is for non-fiction books.

We agree about Darwin's Black Box.

Since Atlas and Fountainhead are novels, they can't be on a list of non-fiction books, eh?
