Fundamental Chemistry
I had spent about 5 years partying and wasting my life... and one night I was so bored at my stupid night shift job that I picked up the only book I could find to read, and it was like my brain sucked it in like a vacuum cleaner- and I immediately started college and ended up with 3 degrees in physics, computer science, and accounting.

Bible. It didn't help change my life. It completely changed my life. And my eternity.

have had a much improved business and bottom line.

Since I have always had the Bible, my life did not change because I grew up a believer.
I would have to say the book that changed me the most was Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics."

The Happy Hollisters and the Haunted House Mystery. Read to my second grade teacher during recess. I developed a joy in reading at that point that is almost an addiction at this point.
