13 Things That Don't Make Sense
by Michael Brooks
The book explores all that experts know about science, and the tremendous amount that they still have to discover.
If you are a science geek, this book is for you. If you are just interested in why things happen, most of the subjects will be interesting. I actually enjoyed most of this book, but some subjects were out of my league.
The chapters about whether homeopathic medicine works and what The Placebo Effect is got my attention... even the first chapter about dark matter was almost written for "regular minds". Rating *** Stars for non-science types
