Confessions by Augustine ( Book )
4,031 editions published between 1150 and 2011 in 38 languages and held by 6,003 libraries worldwide
Written shortly after he became Biship of Hippo, "Confessions" highlights Augustine's childhood in Numidia and his riotous youth and early manhood in Carthage, Rome, and Milan. It also chronicles his continuing struggle with sin and his efforts to find satisfaction in Manichaenism and Neoplatonism. Particularly poignant are his mother's tireless efforts to rescue him from self-destruction and his dramatic conversion to the Christian faith at age 32.

On free choice of the will by Augustine ( Book )
107 editions published between 1491 and 2010 in 12 languages and held by 1,302 libraries worldwide
God, being omnipotent and omnibenevolent, can not create anything bad. Everything he creates is good. God allows humans to have free will, which was a just and appropriate decision. We grow to a more perfect being by performing good deeds. It is through life's turbulence that we advance toward knowledge and peace, through which a blessed life is achieved. Without free will, no righteous act could be performed. [This book is a] work on the "problem of evil" in religion. [This book] is one of Augustine's early writings, from soon after his conversion. It records a conversation between himself and Evodius regarding free will. -http://www.amazon.com
