Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.”

I am torn between both of these titles so am including each of them in my answer. "Godless" by Dan Barker and "The Power of Myth" by Joseph Campbell. "Godless" because my background is very similar to Dan's and I felt a very kindred spirit when reading his words. "The Power of Myth" because it expanded my mind to the wholesale variety of myth and how cultures readily embrace them as a way to explain their world.
