Physics on the Fringe, Margaret Wertheim. Primarily about the contemporary science cranks, but has a great chapter on the history of the subject and goes into a similar work from 130 years ago by the logician Augustus DeMorgan called A Budget of Paradoxes.
Just finished endurance about the first group to try and overland Antarctica. Failed, then was out at ice and seat for nearly 2 years. Just started endurance by Scott Kelly. So far it's good but the Antarctica one was better
I just started Permanent Record, by Edward Snowden. I thought it was going to be more tech-heavy, but, at least the start, seems to be more on the memoirs side.
