Name a nonfiction book so good you wish you could read it again for the first time.
I'll go first.
Gรถdel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid, by Douglas Hofstadfter.
It's a bit of a journey, and a tough read in certain sections. I recommend taking it one chapter at a time and really letting it simmer before moving on to the next. But it will completely change the way you think about your own brain and how it works, and the payoff at the end is ridiculous.
