We ask that you don't nominate something just published in the last few months. Newer books may not be available in all countries, or in all formats, or in libraries.

Nominations will be closed on January 25.

Connectome: How the Brain's Wiring Makes Us Who We Are

"This action packed mythological fantasy cum science fiction" - uh, we usually read non-fiction.

It did well in last month's poll so I'd like to resubmit The Story of Earth: The First 4.5 Billion Years, from Stardust to Living Planet

The Signal and the Noise: Why So Many Predictions Fail - But Some Don't Nate Silver's book on statistics and their use and misuse. Kind of math, important for science.

Wow, some great offerings so far!

I'd love to read The Signal and the Noise: Why So Many Predictions Fail - But Some Don't with this group. I have the feeling I'd need some help along the way.

I'd like to second one of Aleks' nominations: The Holographic universe by Michael Talbot.
(Although there are a lot of interesting nominations already.)

I'll second Nature Wars: The Incredible Story of How Wildlife Comebacks Turned Backyards into Battlegrounds. Had a few of the problems mentioned in the book review myself!

I would like to nominate A Universe from Nothing: Why There is Something Rather Than Nothing. I think that the book is worth exploring :)

I'd love to read The Signal and the Noise. Reviews sound great and I love Nate Silver's work.

I recently saw a recommendation for Cathedrals of Science: The Personalities and Rivalries That Made Modern Chemistry, and sounds like it could add to the difficult-to-find chemistry field.

Don't know if it's too new or not but I would really like to read The Particle at the End of the Universe: How the Hunt for the Higgs Boson Leads Us to the Edge of a New World

Both Nature Wars: The Incredible Story of How Wildlife Comebacks Turned Backyards into Battlegrounds and The Particle at the End of the Universe: How the Hunt for the Higgs Boson Leads Us to the Edge of a New World were published in the U.S. in mid-November. Both sound fascinating but I don't know whether they are available in other countries yet, or in libraries. I recommend that we hold off on these for another couple months.

We have not read much dealing with the subject of geology or the Earth but I thought Our Magnetic Earth: The Science of Geomagnetism looked interesting.

That does look like a very interesting book!

I'll second Ilyas' nomination, with the same reasoning. :)
