des recommandations

in an attempt to brush up my french i stumbled upon jean-pierre luminet who wrote the very captivating cycle 'les bâtisseurs du ciel' about the discoveries and personalities of copernicus, tycho brahe, johannes kepler, galileo galilei and isaac newton (and if you don't know what they disovered you should definitely read it!)

and for those of you who mastered the language and want something more intellectual i can recommend 'la fabrique des images - visions du monde et formes de la représentation' published under the direction of philippe descola. i have only just started it but am convinced that it is very interesting...
