Brian Greene's The Fabric of the Cosmos. The book is designed to give the leyman a better understanding of physics (special/general relativity, quantum physics, etc..) and so far it's a fantastic book. I'd recommend it to anyone interested in science-y things. Also just finished Sex, Drugs, Einstein and Elves by Clifford Pickover. It's basically a hilarious amalgamation of an old scientist's musings and interests including DMT, sushi, conspiracies and lots of other bizarre-o stuff.
