What I’m reading on my iPad
Jun 13th
Here’s what’s I’ve recently finished reading on my iPad’s Kindle app:
- The Demon Under the Microscope: From Battlefield Hospitals to Nazi Labs, One Doctor’s Heroic Search for the World’s First Miracle Drug. Thanks to @solidstateux for the suggestion.
- The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. A rare science book whose title doesn’t take the form “Noun prepositional phrase: The story of the noun.“ Rebecca Skloot is also on Twitter.
- The Family That Couldn’t Sleep: A Medical Mystery. Blending the history of prion diseases with the story of a scary, rare disease.
If you have suggestions for other popular science books that you’ve enjoyed, let me know.
