Physics

[close] Talk about your favourite science books, here or on Twitter using the #scibookchat hashtag. We'll occasionally pick a book to discuss in more detail, but this is not a monthly book club. If you like (narrative) non-fiction books about science or scientists, science-fact-based comics and graphic novels, this is the group for you.

[close] The idea here is to finding a list of novels (good reads) where the central character(s) is/are an engineer/physicist/mathematician (ie strong STEM model). We are especially interested in novels where the central character(s) is a female strong in STEM. Books from different genre, for ages groups and from different cultures are encouraged.

[close] Gelecek Araştırmaları Enstitüsü; geleceğin tasarlanabilir ve yönetilebilir olduğunu çeşitli projeler vasıtasıyla toplumun tüm katmanlarına anlatmayı hedefleyen, kâr amacı gütmeyen bir sivil toplum kuruluşudur. Gelecek Okulu, Enstitü'nün bir düşünce kuruluşu olarak, yaratmaya çalıştığı bilimsel yaklaşım ekolünü temsil eder. Goodreads platformunda oluşturulan bu kitap kulübü ise şekillendirilmeye çalışılan yaklaşımın düşünsel temelini oluşturacak insanları bir araya getirmeyi arzulamaktadır.

[close] (see title) Planning to read one book a month until we decide that's too much or too little. -We'll begin reading each new book on the first of the month. Be ready to discuss by the last week of the month. -Books will be chosen on a rotating basis between moderators. Moderator is responsible for providing questions and topics for group discussion, condensing all discussion into a digest-version "Bookclub Review" of the book in question, compiling quotations from the book that speak to its purpose and gravity, and following up with a group-specific rating out of five stars. Moderator will also be responsible for leading a "follow-up" thread after each book to determine good and bad aspects of each book so future book choices can be influenced by the group's preferences. -Non-choosing members are responsible for responding to questions, posting a thoughtful response, generally participating in discussion and questions, and (obviously) reading the book. Let it be known that if you become an inactive piece of dead-weight shit, you will be booted from our awesome group, never to return again..... unless you ask real nice.
