Ask HN: What book changed your life in 2014?

I debated whether it was too early in December to ask this, but I'm interested in what book(s) changed your life in 2014. I ask because I'm going through something of a personal and professional renaissance and my book of the year was the same as fraqed's when s/he asked the same question in December 2013 [1].

My reading list for 1H15 is a bit vague and wooly right now, so I'm interested in your responses.

For completeness, this could be considered an extension to a previous post of mine [2], but I'm not looking to solve any problem, either perceived or otherwise.

Thank you in advance.
