I LOVED Hager's book ! I've read some Verghese in the New Yorker. He's very good.

Liz (littlewomen) | 18 comments I love the blog!! I now have added 10 Questions Science Can't Answer and 13 Things that Don't Make Sense, and I thought there was a shortage of good science books. That is why I love Goodreads and blogs, you never know what you are missing till you read about someone else. On your challenges page, I was thinking someone needs to come up with a challenge for Science books, just an idea.
