Phenominal compilation:
I was a bit skeptical getting a readers-digest type of a book. However, this turned out to be a very impressive material. A compilation of best articles in science written in 2006, what could be better for a person who likes a good non-fiction read? I think the editor did a fabulous job selecting a wide range of subjects. I highly recommend this book and I myself am buying this series now yearly.
science book:
This is a great series. Don't miss any of it. Back order old issues... it's worth it.
really good:
This is the first edition of this series that I have read. It's pretty good, although, this is more science reporting than science writing. There is a difference, but the articles were well researched and interesting. And they cover a wide variety of topics. Not as good as the Best American Science and Nature Writing, but a great layman's source for the world of science.
Yay for science!:
Delivers what it promises; engaging informative scientific papers from the year. Good read! These books get better every year
