Mind Expanding Books
A curated collection of mind-expanding books across diverse categories like philosophy, science, business, and fiction.
What is Mind Expanding Books?
Mind Expanding Books is a GitHub-hosted repository that serves as a curated directory of intellectually stimulating books across a wide range of subjects. It solves the problem of finding high-quality, thought-provoking literature by providing a categorized, community-vetted list with ratings. The project helps readers move beyond algorithmic recommendations to discover works that foster deeper thinking and learning.
Avid readers, lifelong learners, students, and professionals seeking to broaden their intellectual horizons beyond mainstream bestsellers. It's particularly valuable for those building a personal reading curriculum or exploring new disciplines.
Unlike commercial platforms, it offers a transparent, community-curated selection focused on intellectual merit rather than sales. The categorical organization and inclusion of Goodreads ratings provide both structure and social proof, making discovery efficient and trustworthy.
