Instability Rules: The Ten Most Amazing Ideas of Modern Science by Charles Flowers

Basic and wide-ranging; also a tad flippant and smart-alecky.

A Science Odyssey: 100 Years of Discovery (The Companion Book to the PBS Series) by Charles Flowers

history of 20th century scientific achievements in areas of physics/astronomy, technology, origins (evolution), medicine, and human behavior. Ok to read just one chapter; chapters 1, 2, and 4 are most relevant to class.
