– A.C. Grayling
Here at the McGuinness Institute, we really love books. Books have the power to bring people together by identifying shared experiences, teaching new skills and explaining different perspectives. When you open a good book, you are opening yourself up to a fresh point of view, allowing you to explore a new world from the comfort of your armchair. Reading provides a calming break from the 24/7 online news cycle, click-bait headlines and phone notifications that are part of modern life. We love books so much we even have our own McGuinness Institute Library, which has been open to the public since 2009.
