Just read:
"Taboo: Why Black Athletes Dominate Sports and Why We're Afraid to Talk About It" by John Entine.
Pretty good read, although he spent way too much time going over the history of blacks in sport (for anyone who has read about Jesse Owens, Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, etc before it gets very repetitive). But when he got into the science of it, it was quite interesting.
Now reading:
"Pandemonium" by Andrew Nikiforuk. Really snappy writer who tells us about many of the emerging viruses out there - not Ebola etc but viruses infecting our food supply (bord flu, CJD, etc). Interesting read.
