See how ideas and books influence one another across time. Our timelines visually trace recommendations and intellectual connections from one book to the next.
Search and filter books by category, recommender, or year. Whether you're looking for a starting point or deep cuts, We're here to help.
Every book on this site was selected for its impact, insight, or elegance. Let the University of Utah’s top thinkers guide your next read.
