More, better best books...
Now Discover magazine has a list of the 25 best ever science books, in the December Issue - with Darwin in the top two spots.
Like the RI event, this has the flaw that science books from all periods are treated as if they are the same kind of thing, so Newton, Galileo, Vesalius are equated with Weinberg and Dawkins... But some interesting entries on the full list.
There's an online vote for the best ever, too, open until mid-December.
