Best books to develop a profound wisdom of cause and effect

What books can help me develop a profound wisdom of cause and effect—understanding human behavior, motives, emotions, intentions, political patterns, and the recurring cycles of society? I want books that show how the same patterns manifest at both the individual and collective level, how actions and inner dispositions eventually produce consequences, and how these patterns can lead to someone’s downfall, transformation, or redemption.

I’m looking for books about the deeper dualities and recurring patterns of life—how things manifest, how opposites interact, how consequences unfold over time, and how seemingly small causes can eventually produce enormous effects. I want to understand the underlying patterns rather than just memorize historical events or receive surface-level advice, I don’t even know it all, but if you know what I mean u know what I mean ty in advance
