1.		In Search of Schrödinger's Cat: Quantum Physics and Reality from Bantam Books Price: $11.56 Customer Review: I bought this book because of something that was said on "Big Bang Theory", the TV show. I was curious to find out what the differences might be between quantum mechanics and quantum physics. This book gives you a brief history of both and was worth reading. It was not so technical that it was... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		The Scientists: A History of Science Told Through the Lives of Its Greatest Inventors from Random House Trade Paperbacks Price: $12.21 Customer Review: Chapter 14, page 556: "The person who put all pieces together and made chemistry a branch of physics was the American Linus Pauling (1901-1994)." I doubt that chemistry is a branch of physics. I am a chemist. The author is a physicist. Perhaps he knows better. Is then biology a branch of chemistry?

3.		Deep Simplicity: Bringing Order to Chaos and Complexity from Random House Price: $16.47 Customer Review: without doubt, this nears limits of ability of man to integrate and articulate possible (?probable) sequence of events from origen of universe to origen of life, as it may be recognized by man. A scientific background and prior understanding of physics/biochemistry/universal law and concept of power... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		The Matter Myth: Dramatic Discoveries that Challenge Our Understanding of Physical Reality from Simon & Schuster Price: $10.95 Customer Review: I agree with the majority of reviewers that this is an excellent book, making some very difficult concepts understandable to the layman. The book was published in 1992, and I bought the October 2007 edition. It is a pity that so much data in the book are outdated: Dark matter is hardly mentioned,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Schrodinger's Kittens and the Search for Reality: Solving the Quantum Mysteries Tag: Author of In Search of Schrod. Cat from Back Bay Books Price: $10.17 Customer Review: This is one of the best books I have read that reviews both classical and quantum physics to explain the nature of physical reality. Although somewhat outdated, it describes all major schools of thoughts (interpretations) of quantum reality in layman's terms with comparisons and numerous references... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Eyewitness: Time & Space from DK CHILDREN Price: $10.87 Customer Review: I've read alot of books about space, but this is the most detailed space book I've ever read. The part about time machines and black holes was confusing but very interesting. I had no idea it was possible to make a time machine, or is it? This book may not be right on everything but I trust it. I... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		The Science of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials from Laurel Leaf Price: $5.99 Customer Review: Fantasy for the sake of escapism is wonderful. Explanation of the same may become problematic. To the reader who enjoys escaping reality for fantasy, explanation for what otherwise has no reason is as inviting as the many hurtful "growing up" moments: e.g. when we learn that there is no Santa Claus... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		Flower Hunters from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $18.45 Customer Review: I have been an avid reader of John and Mary Gribbin for a number of years. The Flower Hunters is another fine example of their work. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend it to all of my friends. Being someone who generally reads hard-core science, I found it an interesting distraction... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
