Classic Books

One of the hallmarks of Paradigm Library is that we are trying to direct the students to a deeper level of learning and studying. We do that through the use of "classical books". But what is the definition of classical? For me, there are 2 elements of classical. One is that it has stood the test of time--that it is relevant today as well as when it was written. The second is the question--would I read it again and again? For each of us, there are different definition of classic but those two elements have worked well for me. CCB
