I'm reading:
'Pathfinders: The Golden Age of Arabic Science', by Jim Al-Khalili
'Running Free' by Richard Askwith
and about to start (when one of the two above are finished)
'Connectome' by Sebastian Seung.
I just finished:
'Life at the Extremes: The Science of Survival' By Frances Ashcroft
'Arctic Dreams' By Barry Lopez
Overall- 'Arctic Dreams' is excellent dip in fodder- where you can put the book down for a bit, and come back to it without issue. It also makes me desperate to do some exploring.
'Life at the Extremes' is just brilliant. Read it if you're vaguely interested in physiology.
'Running Free' isn't as good as 'Feet in the Clouds' but still inspiring stuff (if you're a runner).
'Pathfinders'- is difficult to get going, but it is full of pretty fascinating stuff.
