A Short History of Nearly Everything, by Bill Bryson.
If you're not familiar with this, it's a popular science book, but so wonderfully well written and funny that for entertainment value it beats most other books I've read. In addition to this, I think that everyone could learn a great deal from reading this book, no matter how scientifically literate or otherwise they were. Reading this book also really affected me, making me feel several different emotions, but the overwhelming one was just how insignificant the problems I've been stressing about lately are. Everyone should read this.
