Dear Science Readers,
This site is a continuously growing archive of my book reviews. It is self-funded, with part of the cost covered by your purchases through my Amazon.com links. Thanks to an increasing number of visitors, revenues now cover most of my cost. I appreciate your support.
As of now, most past reviews have been added, and I will be adding others and activating their links as the appropriate occasion arises. If you see the name of a book without an active link and would be interested in my review, or if you click on a link and and get an error message, please e-mail me about it. I have also begun adding books that I have seen and recommend, but have not written reviews for. Those books are designated with an asterisk (*) below.
A new addition to the Science Shelf is an occasional e-mail newsletter (once every two weeks or so) to tell you about new books and features added to the site. If you add your e-mail address to the Science Shelf mailing list, please be assured it will be not be shared with anyone or used for any other purpose exept to mail you information about the website.
