Book club book of the month

Here at the Physics department we like to have science-y books as our book club books! What science-y books can you recommend?

2025/4/1 Edited to

... Read moreIf you’re searching for compelling science-related reads for your book club this month, consider titles that have captivated readers with their engaging narratives and informative content. Among the notable picks is ‘Lessons’ by Rachel Joyce, a deeply moving novel that intertwines science, human experience, and emotional depth, shedding light on the complexities of life. Another recommendation is ‘Lessons in Chemistry’ by Bonnie Garmus, which combines humor with a strong-willed female protagonist in the male-dominated world of the 1960s scientific community. Additionally, ‘The Last House on Needless Street’ by Catriona Ward offers a unique horror experience that engages with psychological themes through a scientific lens. These selections not only present scientific ideas but also prompt rich discussions about ethics, personal struggles, and the impact of science on society. As you curate your book list for this month, consider how these stories resonate with current scientific debates and personal journeys, making them perfect stimuli for thought-provoking dialogue among your book club members.
