The Map That Changed the World: William Smith and the Birth of Modern Geology
Read by Simon Winchester
Once upon a time there lived a man who discovered the secrets of the earth. He traveled far and wide, learning about the world below the surface. After years of toil, he created a great map of the underworld and expected to live happily ever after. But did he? Simon Winchester (The Professor and the Madman) tells the fossil-friendly fairy tale life of William Smith.

Don't Know Much About the Universe: Everything You Need to Know About the Cosmos but Never Learned
Read by Oliver Wyman
In this chatty, eminently approachable science and history survey, Wyman quotes poets, unscrambles Galileo's coded notes to Kepler, defines "nova" and "planetary nebula" in liberal-arts-friendly terms, discusses The X-Files and generally strives to put science-phobes at ease.
