# Reading Lists Below are some recommended books by category. You are encouraged to make your own reading list categories and edit the categories below. All wanderers must find and assimilate new information at all chapters in life. A diversity of information mediums is recommended. This is the information assimilation tenet. The links give us a small commission that allows us to further support the Andreia Philosophy. If this bothers you, remove them. ##### **How to get books** You can buy books through Amazon, although it is better to buy books from a local business to support your community. Used books are just as valuable, if not more, than new books. You can get books from the library. If you don’t have the money for books, the library is the best place to go. If your library does not have the book you want, you can request an interlibrary loan from your local librarian. You can always reach out to the author/publisher directly to request a low-cost or complimentary copy. **Sponsored book offers:** - [Kindle unlimited free trial](https://amzn.to/3L5QfRx) - [Audible free trial](https://amzn.to/3KMbHuR) Add books you want to read into their proper categories. You can also add your favorite books to your reading list. Aim to assimilate a minimum of one book a month, a tenet of the mind domain. That’s 60 books every 5 years. This is okay; more learning is better. #### **Reading Lists** ##### **Bushido Philosophy** - [ The Book of Five Rings | Miyamoto Musashi](https://amzn.to/48SKcZJ) - [The Unfettered Mind | Takuan Soho](https://amzn.to/4j9zf9r) - [Hagakure | Yamamoto Tseunetomo](https://amzn.to/4b095UE) - [The Hundred Rules of War | Tsukahara Bokuden](https://amzn.to/3MS9VZF) - [Bushido The Soul Of Japan | Inazo O.
