Best Science Books - Non-Fiction Only (Feb 2022) - Page 6

from GoodReads....

Best Science Books - Non-Fiction Only
Popular or even technical science books that you thought were really well done.
Note: Please keep it to actual science - no politics or nutrition, unless the focus is very definitely on science. No science fiction, politics, history, religion, or self-help. Any book that doesn't meet the criteria will be removed.
I stopped after the first 240 books in the list though there's a more varied list waiting to be compiled!
Let's see what the response is to this one first?
