I have been reading Bonk by Mary Roach on various past trips and will finish it on my next trip. It is a very funny popular science book, which one cannot say very often! Moreover, it demonstrates in an honest way various interesting aspects of the scientific process, albeit applied to a very unusual topic: sex.
I highly recommend it, even if one sometimes has to worry that one’s neighbor on a plane might glance at some of the rather explicit discussions therein!
Read an earlier review of Bonk: The curious coupling of sex and science.
