The Shape of Wonder
Alan Lightman and Martin Rees
Pantheon, $28
One of my closest friends is a neuroscientist, investigating how brain cells develop and how they search for and choose other brain cells to connect with. Her research can sound intimidating, but when she’s not trying to decode the mysteries of one of the body’s least understood organ, she’s like anyone else. In her free time, she watches Netflix and goes for runs. When we meet for brunch, we talk about the books we’re reading (we’re avid nonfiction readers).
