A selection of writings by scientists, apparently selected to show that these can make good literature. Unfortunately, as a scientist, its rather hard to assess them in that way; one wants to examine the science there. In this respect, the better known scientists are at something of a disadvantage - one already knows what it is they discovered! Nevertheless, there are several interesting items. I especially enjoyed the description of the first criticality in the first atomic pile written by Laura Fermi.
