I just want to read about various scientific disciplines from people that are passionate about it.
Anyone know any good books?

Brief History of Time was written by Hawking himself and was simplifed enough for even a highschool undergrad to understand

One of the heads of Fermilab (certified by Dep of Energy) wrote Dark Matter and Dinosaurs. Haven't read it yet but should be amazing.

Try reading straight up from Wikipedia. You'll be surprised at how much you can understand.
Well, maybe?
Fermilab vids are amazingly simple. Watch them

Thanks guys!
Btw if anyone has anything on human genetics, that'd be really swell.
I've been really digging behavioural biology lately.

Not genetics but pretty sure you would love The Hot Zone and Demon in the Freezer
It's about Ebola and Smallpox

Even Stephen King said they were scary nonfiction books

Max Gleick's 'Chaos' is apparently a fantastic primer on chaos theory and other physics rabbit-holes without requiring the reader to be particularly mathematically proficient or scientifically literate.
