Here is a list of my favorite Science books that I have read and kept. The rating scale is primarily 4's and 5's. Books less than that fail to make the list. The 5's are books that I recall as being spectacular but the 4's are also very good books. Of course, the reasons behind such a rating are personal and reflect my biases and preferences.
