De Rerum Natura: The Latin Text of Lucretius (Latin and English Edition)
by

Why doesn't anyone write pop science books like this any more? You know, full of cutting-edge particle physics and cosmology (who cares if it's all wrong? it's magnificently wrong) but with bits about earthquakes and evolution, mixed up with hot sex tips and complaints about why women are all such fucking bitches. And the whole thing done as exquisite poetry. Brian Greene, eat your heart out. No one's going to be reading you a couple of thousand years from now.

"It sounds so beautiful that you can easily forget three-quarters of it is completely wrong. Well, the same can be said for some other great scientists."
