Book Recommendation Request

[UserGone221]

I am looking for book recommendations on human nature; specifically, books that were the most instructive on man's fallen nature and natural inclinations.

I am looking for books that left the reader with a deeper understanding of human nature as related to sin. If there is a portion of a book that you can highlight, all the better. The standards (Bondage of the Will; Edwards' on the Determination of the Will) have been helpful, I am now looking for recommendations of even just chapters or sections from works.

thank you in advance.

John Owen wrote a book called "The Nature, Power, Deceit, and Prevalency Of Indwelling Sin". (This book is also contained in a book of 3 works called "Overcoming Sin and Temptation".) For my purposes it was very instructive, but I was only looking at it to understand how the/my sinful nature is set against God.
