Science and Natural History discussion

October nominations are now open! Choose one of your own books or find inspiration from the group's bookshelf.

- Books must be nonfiction, within our general theme.
- Nominations are open until 21th.
- Please add suggestions using add book/author.
- No more than 3 book suggestions pr. person.
- All recommendations will be featured in a subsequent poll. Done by 27th.
- Feel free to pitch, especially in the comments at the poll.

I would like to nominate Oxygen: The Molecule That Made the World.

As a second choice I would like to re-nominate Aladdin's Lamp: How Greek Science Came to Europe Through the Islamic World. I nominated it for last month and it lost by only one vote, so I try again ;-)

I nominate "Hidden Reality" by Brian Greene

Check out The Event Handbook by Cobra

Thanks for all the recommendations! Would love to recommend ,Amazon Burning, an environmental thriller based on the Chico Mendes murder.

The natural and exotic Amazon setting definitely caught my attention - always wanted to go there!

Afraid I've already made the poll for this month,̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶w̶i̶l̶l̶ ̶c̶a̶r̶r̶y̶ ̶i̶t̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶n̶e̶x̶t̶. Here is the poll. Feel free to write it in (enabled due to few suggestions and me not having sent a reminder pr. message, but by experience they don't usually perform too well)

Edit: Seems to be fiction, and as such not in the scope of this group.
