Dinosaur Heresies (Asuming it's the one by Bakker) popped up as the only hit when I searched for it under find/add books to list.Brief History of Time is in the top 5.

Any major text will do, be nice to find one that is more narrative than schematic.
Removed an obvious work of fiction.
I deleted several works of fiction as well as several religious texts. For those voters interested in the intersection of science and religion, I would suggest finding or starting a new list for that purpose. This list is geared towards nonfiction science books rather than religious interpretations or debates with science.
I'm rather disturbed about the amount of novels that appear on this purported list of "scientific novels" that are taking the stance of intelligent design. Intelligent design is not scientific by its very definition, it is not something that can be tested or disproven and therefore should not be on a list about scientific (keyword here) books.

Only in America, land of anti-intellectualism!
