A New Kind of Science
The Future of Life
Mapping Human History: Discovering the Past Through Our Genes
Steven Wolfram, who became famous (and wealthy) for developing the Mathematica computuer language, dropped out of mainstream science early in his career. His book describes a new way of looking at and explaining the complexities found in nature. E.O. Wilson excels at describing the natural world to the lay reader. In this book he uses that talent to examine the complex relationships between envirnomentalism and economics. Steve Olson explains the genetics behind the concept of "race." It's becoming clear (as this book states) that "race" is little more than a sociological construct with little or no basis in genetics.
