Watch this space for full book reviews

I tagged this with every category since I review books in all realms of science.

Though I plan to maintain my Science Shelf archive of book reviews, I will now also publish the reviews on Science Blog.

Coming this weekend: Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex by Mary Roach, author of Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers and Spook: Science Tackles the Afterlife.

The review includes my guess as to what title the wise-cracking Roach will write next.

Stay tuned!

Mis-wrote about date for Bonk review

It will be posted here the weekend of 4/25-27 after its appearance on the Seattle Times website. Mary Roach will be speaking in Seattle on 4/28.

At that point, anyone who claims to be "Sleepless in Seattle" will have a good reason for that nickname: after having read Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex they will have better things to do in bed than sleep. They will be engaged in field research.
