This year has seen an explosion of books written by science bloggers, and it looks like the trend is going to continue well into 2010.
Jason Rosenhouse recently published The Monty Hall Problem and is hard at work on a new title about what goes on at creationist conferences.
Chris Mooney and Sheril Kirshenbaum released Unscientific America, and Kirshenbaum is nearing completion on a new book, The Science of Kissing.
The ever-popular Carl Zimmer brought us two new gems, Microcosm and the soon-to-be-released The Tangled Bank. I can't wait to see what's next.
Rebecca Skloot's long-awaited The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks will debut in February of next year.
Jerry Coyne released Why Evolution is True, which he complemented by starting a science blog by the same name.
John Wilkins considered the idea of "species" from a historical perspective, and it looks like he's got plenty more to say on the subject.
Chad Orzel's forthcoming title will tell you How to Teach Physics to Your Dog.
Thomas Levenson allowed us to view Isaac Newton from a different perspective in his fantastic historical work Newton and the Counterfeiter.
Darren Naish just saw the publication of his beautiful volume The Great Dinosaur Discoveries. If you like dinosaurs, you need this book.
Word has it that even PZ Myers is working on some super-secret book project.
Apologies if I missed anyone or any titles (feel free to make additions/corrections in the comments), but there have been so many new blogger-penned books that it has been hard to keep track of them all! Even though I have not read many (or even most) of these titles, it is good to see so many of my science blogging peers in print. This year especially, it seems that a few authors have taken up science blogging and a number of bloggers have transformed ideas from their blogs into books, transitions that I am hoping to discuss in more detail during a session at ScienceOnline2010 in January.
