Science-Book Challenge 2009

Everyone should feel free to accept the challenge any time before the end of 2009. Decide on your book list at the beginning or be more spontaneous and choose titles as you go. Let us know that you're taking the challenge and we'll put your name here with other challengers, along with updates about your notes as you contribute them. You can use the handy [[Special:CommentForm | comment form]] to reach us. You might find it interesting to look at last year's list of challengers in the [[Science-Book Challenge 2008]].
