With summer vacation drawing to a close, many ScienceBloggers are trying to squeeze in some final summer reading before they--and their sprogs--embark on the new academic year. On Confessions of a Science Librarian, John Dupuis asks for his readers' assistance in selecting titles and offers a few recommendations of his own. Janet Stemwedel of Adventures in Ethics and Science shares which good science reads her kids have had their noses in this summer. And on Eruptions, volcanologist Erik Klemetti picks his favorite general and technical books on the subject. If you're in the market for a good summer read yourself, check out SEEDMAGAZINE.COM's August Picks and the Daily Book Giveaway.
