Book Lecture
Unlike newspapers or magazines, I love books (especially fiction). So it comes as no surprise for me that they've played a huge role in our development as a species. I mean, how could they not? They're filled to the brim with information, whether it's true or not. And even if a book isn't full of facts and figures, there's usually still a lesson that can be learned (perhaps one on morality).
Books are also great tools to shape minds and hearts, for better or for worse. There have been numerous books on religion that have converted thousands. Books have to potential start revolutions
and help end wars. They can easily spark ethical debates and can be used to make satire to call out the powerful. No wonder people say reading is dangerous.
