I guess some scientific work would make it into the list owing to their profound impact on society through overthrowing established philosophical thinking. Among others:
- Copernic's De revolutionibus orbium coelestium enabled the copernician revolution, which had profound impacts on how people thought about their place in the universe.
- Darwin's On the Origin of Species had more or less the same kind of impact, and provoked a strong reaction in the society, especially within churches.
I'm sure with more research we could find other scientific work that had a profound impact not only on our understanding of ourselves and our surroundings, but also on the way we think about ourselves.
