Anyone have any science ebook recommendations that meet the following criteria?

1) not overly technical (I don't have a science degree)
2) available without DRM (and preferably in a format that suits the PRS-700 without conversion).
2a) Must be available to buy from Australia
3) I've just read 'A Brief History of Time' and want some more books with a similar tone.
4) Not a text book

Any science topic is welcome, especially evolution, space exploration, anything to do with the brain/mind.

I couldn't find anything on Fictionwise. I like the sound of the Bill Bryson book but can't find it without DRM.
