They aren’t exactly “reads” in the context of this post, but my votes for best science related reading are “The History of the Atomic Bomb” by Richard Rhodes, “The Tangled Wing” by Melvin Konner about the biological bases of human behavior, “The Unsettling of America” by Wendell Berry about the environmental impact of industrial agriculture, and “Gödel, Escher, Bach” by Douglas Hofstadter that’s nominally about computers, but includes a lot else.
