Biology

[close] This concept started as a personal challenge to myself to read more science books, but challenges are always more fun with friends! We'll read 1 book each month related to science, wildlife, outdoors, conservation, climate change, etc. Feel free to read as many or as few of the books as you want, and in any order! I just want to spark conversation about the topics in these books and it doesn't matter when. Thanks for joining me!

[close] Students and instructors in Miami University's Project Dragonfly programs are pretty brilliant and have exquisite taste in books. If you are affiliated with the program, please join us and share your recommendations.

[close] Welcome to Birds! Eclectus Parrots (Eclectus roratus) For all bird lovers—wrap yourself in the realm of birds and share your experiences while birding! We will read books about and relating to birds, giving us a broader and newer understanding of them at the same time as we discuss species and take in birding tips. At first, birding may seem like a wasted pastime, but if looked at in the right way, reveals an outstanding world that you never thought existed. I hope to explore this world with you and learn from you in a community where we are all into ornithology, so don't hesitate, meander into the realm of feathered creatures that surround us.

[close] Talk about your favourite science books, here or on Twitter using the #scibookchat hashtag. We'll occasionally pick a book to discuss in more detail, but this is not a monthly book club. If you like (narrative) non-fiction books about science or scientists, science-fact-based comics and graphic novels, this is the group for you.
