What are your favorite nonfiction books about science or the social sciences?
I'm particularly interested in readable, modern books about cosmology, quantum physics, public policy, gender, development, economics, and philosophy.

I'm currently reading Steven Pinker’s Enlightenment Now. I’ve enjoyed it so far.
Recently, I read Tyler Cowen’s Stubborn Attachments and Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo’s Poor Economics.
