Just finished colour of magic, just started the light fantastic

 

[wolfeeh]

Gonna be doing a lot more reading now I've upgraded to a kindle paperwhite. An extremely pleasant reading experience!

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Redshirts by John Scalzi. Loving it.

 

[Fweddy]

I've nearly finished reading The Blind Watchmaker by Richard Dawkins. It's fantastic, I've had to stop reading it before bedtime because it wakes my brain up too much to let me sleep.

I want to read more popular science books, any recommendations?

 

[Exioce]

I assume you've read The Selfish Gene already.
After that, Bob Zubrin's "The Case for Mars" is a favourite of mine.
The other sciences don't make for as easy going books as biology does. Try out some Brian Greene and you'll see what I mean.

Why??!

I presume you've read A Brief History of Time?

A Short History of Nearly Everything is good. Stumbling on Happiness is good too. Bad Science by Ben Gouldacre is interesting.

As have/am I!

I read them in University but thought I'd give em another go

Agreed, I don't really rate him as a presenter or writer. Though maybe I'm biased as I already know about all the stuff he tries (badly) to explain Hence why I enjoyed Freakonomics

 

[Fweddy]

Thanks for your advice chaps. I've read A Short History of Nearly Everything before so I've ordered A Brief History of Time, The Selfish Gene, The Fabric of the Cosmos, Stumbling on Happiness, The Case for Mars, Mutants: On the Form, Varieties and Errors of the Human Body, The Demon-haunted World and Bad Science. That should keep me busy

 

[Cerb]

Paper Lion - Confessions of a last string quarterback.

Really good so far. Guys a good writer....even if he seems like he's trying to rip of Mark Twain with his writing style.

 

[wolfeeh]

Why??!

Interesting book, well researched and well written.

Interesting book, well researched and well written.

I can't dispute that. It just strikes me as a strange choice. What made you choose it?

And - so, why do some men like the women who like to get boffed by other men then?
