Even in the age of the Internet, there’s nothing like browsing real books. Here are some of my favourite bookshops in Australia for science books. All of them are worth a visit:
Abbey’s Bookshop, in Sydney, is an excellent bookshop, with the entire back wall being devoted to science and mathematics.
Books Kinokuniya, just a short distance from Abbey’s (in The Galeries Victoria), also has a good science collection.
Boffins Bookshop, in Perth, specialises in technical subjects, including science and mathematics.
The Book Grocer, in multiple Melbourne locations and elsewhere around Australia (including Canberra), is an excellent discount book chain. All books are $10 or less. The Book Grocer usually carries a range of interesting mathematics and science books.
In addition to the bookshops listed, bookshops in major universities (such as branches of the Co-op) can be counted on to carry interesting stock in the areas of science and mathematics. Clouston and Hall Academic Remainders, in Canberra (not pictured), offer a range of interesting books at a discount, and a number of other bookshops, such as Readings and Reader’s Feast in Melbourne, also carry a reasonable stock of science and mathematics books.
So why not celebrate National Science Week by reading a book about science?
Next week is National Science Week in Australia. See here for events during the week. Even if you’re not in Australia, there’s the chance to get involved in a citizen science project to explore the sea-floor around Australia. So why not take part?
