Introductions

[Eva]

A place for introductions.

Hi, I'm Eva, and I read a lot of books about science, so I thought I'd create a place to talk about them.

[Dan]

Hi, I'm Dan -- I read science books pretty much all the time! I've also written three of them (Universe on A T-Shirt: The Quest for the Theory of Everything, In Search of Time: The Science of a Curious Dimension, and The Science of Shakespeare: A New Look at the Playwright's Universe). And I co-host a podcast called BookLab (http://booklabpodcast.com), along with Amanda Gefter; every two weeks (roughly), we talk about three different science books. You can find us on LibSyn, SoundCloud, and iTunes. Cheers!

[Emily]

Hi, I'm Emily, and I *don't* read that many books on science...but I would like to, and also would like to get recommendations from my knowledgeable colleagues.

[Eva]

Hi everyone! Thanks for joining. I'm still figuring out the format of GoodReads groups. It looks like we can start a bookshelf and add books to it. Might be a good idea for suggested reading material.

[David]

Hi, my name is David. I'm the host of a french podcast called "LisezLaScience", meaning "read the science!" in english,(http://lisezlascience.wordpress.com) aiming at presenting science books and their authors. I'm trying to publish an episode every 2 or 3 weeks and people can find us on iTunes and podcloud.

[Alasdair]

Hello. I'm Alasdair and I've written a popular science book (The Best Bits of Physics). Wow, that sounds like AA or something!
I also write a lot of things like revision guides, practice exam questions and that kind of thing.
