 | Longitude by Dava Sobel An interesting story of getting an accurate longitude measurement. |
 | The Code Book by Simon Singh Code history, plus a lot about public key cryptography. Good read. |
 | The Cracking Code Book by Simon Singh An inferior edition of the above book. Don't bother. |
 | Fermat's last Theorem by Simon Singh A real interesting story, even if you have no interest in maths and the like. |
Also got a DVD out called The Fastest Indian
Great story about a New Zealander and his Indian motorcycle getting to over 200 mph. A bit mad in my view, but a different day and age in the 60s.
The indian cure for prostrate problems seems to be crushed up dog balls!
