Revision as of 15:46, 29 May 2007
This is a transcribe of the Science Books thread in the Science Subforum, a cumulative list of various members' recommended reading. Recommendations can include anything from Chemistry, to Mathematics, all the way to that fiddly little thing we know as Quantum Mechanics, so long as it is a branch of Science, it's there.
