Jonathan Harris recently shared his picks for his personal top 10 works of non-fiction. His list includes a couple that would go on my list (the Eames' Powers of Ten and Godfrey Reggio's Koyaanisqatsi) as well as all of YouTube (surely that's cheating a bit!) and one that I'd never heard of before, the Ten Ox Herding Pictures (shown above).
As a way of introduction, here are the famous "Ox-Herding Pictures," composed by a 12th-century Chinese monk, describing the stages of practice leading to the Buddhist notion of enlightenment (and my favorite top-ten list of all time).
