I realised recently that almost all the non-fiction I read has something to do with my academic interests (history, gender, politics, climate sciences) or memoirs. I want to change that, so I'd love some recs about pretty much anything else. I'd be open to books on environment and climate change, too, tbh because I haven't read much in that field.

The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben
The Hidden Life of Trees, about how trees communicate. Blew me away. Also love The Professor and the Mad Man; about the creation of the oxford english dictionary.
The Disappearing Spoon (about the periodic table) and The Poisoner’s Handbook (the birth of forensic science in NYC ) are both fascinating
I recently posted about a similar suggestion to which I got a ton of replies! My suggestion is song of the cell which is essentially a history of cell therapy and where we are today. This is the thread – https://www.reddit.com/r/suggestmeabook/s/E8aa78U3sB
