I was so surprised when I found no existing book lists concerning Psycho Pass... I felt quite responsible to immediately create one (by rewatching the show in the meantime - it's just sooo genius)

Thank you so much Jacob! :) I was also browsing in order to find as many of them as were quoted or referred to in the show (how did I miss Titus Andronicus?? such an iconic scene of Makishima), so your addition was very much welcome!
True, fantastic list, thank you for making it! :) And all the books seem so thought-provoking, I got inspired by them being referenced in "Psycho-Pass", I hope to read a few of them and other books by their authors. This anime really inspires you to read. ...now that I think about it, I would love to see Gen Urobuchi's reading list - I hope he'll publish it sometime. :)
Thanks for the list, damn psycho pass books are so legit
Thats awesome.... thanks!!
Excellent list for this anime masterpiece, thank you!Psyho Pass was a major stepping stone for me towards reading ,and especially reading philosophy. I think I will re-watch soon for 3rd time.
Szuper lista, köszönjük!
thanks for the list. I really love this anime and when I heard the names of many of the books I read in the story, I wondered if I could find the full list. thanks for your work.
This list is incredible! For both my own and others' sake, I have a few more that were on the bookshelves in one scene (though they do not entirely fit the mark of being mentioned or referenced):Power/Knowledge by Michel Foucault
Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant
The OTHER Heading by Jacques Derrida
OF GRAMMATOLOGY by Jacques Derrida
The ear of the other by Jacques Derrida
Anyone can add books to this list.
