1.		Six Easy Pieces: Essentials of Physics Explained by Its Most Brilliant Teacher (Helix Book) Customer Review: Like most of Dr. Feynman's other books, this one provides someone with a short but understandable account of a variety of important subjects in physics. His descriptions of physics are entertaining and reveal his particular way of approaching the subject. To really understand any subject, it is... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

2.		The Character of Physical Law (Penguin Press Science) from Penguin Books Ltd Customer Review: This is not one of the most popular Feynman books you can get but it is a short introduction to physics along with Feynman's way of helping people to learn about it. While I wouldn't have this on my list of first Feynman books to get (or physics books for that matter) if you do find it and have an... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

3.		The Mind of God: The Scientific Basis for a Rational World from Simon & Schuster Price: $10.20 Customer Review: After reading God and the New Physics, I added Paul Davies to my list of fantasy dinner guests. After reading the Mind of God, I decided to invite only him so we could have a one-on-one conversation. Throughout my life, I have, as others surely do, wonder what it is all about. In addition,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

4.		Physics and Philosophy (Penguin Modern Classics) from Penguin Classics Customer Review: The world paradigm described by physics seemed to have changed with discoveries in the early 20th century, and yet due to the complexity of the science involved society has not been able to fully accompany that change. With that in mind, it's perhaps unfortunate that this book has not been given... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

5.		Cosmic Jackpot: Why Our Universe Is Just Right for Life from Houghton Mifflin Price: $17.16 Customer Review: The explanation / claim known as vitalism is profoundly science-ejected, as Davies states excellently in this 2007 book: "two hundred years ago, many scientists were content to treat life as a fundamental phenomenon because they believed that some sort of life force or vital essence was... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

6.		Dragons (How to Draw) from Search Press Price: $9.95 Customer Review: I bought this book for my son and he is finding it very useful. It's easy to follow and gives good instructions.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

7.		About Time: Einstein's Unfinished Revolution from Simon & Schuster Price: $10.20 Customer Review: I liked this book. When I read the first pages, I thought that I had chosen the wrong book, but afterwards everything changed. Here you can find a light and clear review of many aspects of time. It is not perfect, and some times it is not clear what the author means with "time reversal", etc,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

8.		The Goldilocks Engima: Why Is the Universe Just Right for Life? from Mariner Books Price: $9.57 Customer Review: Must Read Davies has written a book about physics generally and cosmology in particular. To a person interested in but not formally trained in these th disciplines, it must necessarily be hard going. But anyone who can find a better up-to-date attempt at what Davies has achieved will be indeed... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

9.		God and the New Physics from Simon & Schuster Price: $10.20 Customer Review: I bought this book in 1983 and have referred to it a few times in some of my writings. However, I read it again from front to back and was impressed at how bold the book was for its time (almost 25 years ago!) and how relevant it still is even though science has been greatly added to. I... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

10.		The FIFTH MIRACLE: The Search for the Origin and Meaning of Life from Simon & Schuster Price: $10.20 Customer Review: This book is very, very good - an excellent read. It most certainly is a in-depth look at 'age-old' questions of "where did it all begin?" and with absolute neutrality regarding current scientic views versus current religious 'creator' views.
