Science book longlist announced
 From BBC News, Science book longlist announced:The 13-strong longlist of popular science books vying for the prestigious 2006 Aventis Prize has been announced. ... "The diversity of subjects, the excellence of the writing, the singularity of individual voices; all of these contributed to remind us that writing, and reading, about scientific ideas can be a tremendously exciting experience." ... "This stuff is so accessible it is sometimes hard to put down, and the science is so absorbing and surprising it can make fiction seem dull. Science writing used to be full of impenetrable jargon, but these books are a joy". A somewhat unusual front page posting for MobileRead, but I figured many people here are interested in popular science. |
