Thoughts on picrel? I think this is genuinely one of my favorite books. While it might sound like "I f*cking love science!" book (especially since Vsauce borrowed a lot from it in his earlier videos and some of its content such as liquid glass got into mainstream) it is actually quite sober. It describes how we know what we know, how little we know and how what we know isnt set in stone.
