  • The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot

(The Skloot book probably deserves a special award for so often being the only science book on a list.)

I'm always looking for recommendations and notifications of book lists as they appear in various media outlets. If you see one that I haven't covered, please let me know at jdupuis at yorku dot ca or in the comments.

I am picking up a lot of lists from Largehearted Boy.

Earlier entries in this year's list of lists can be found here and the 2009 summary post here.
