Eh? Fiction or Nonfiction.

See my favourite books list, really.

My favourite book, either fiction or non-fiction, is, at the moment, Wholeness and the Implicate Order. It's by late physicist David Bohm, and outlines a very radical theory about the nature of reality (it's both popular science and philosophy) that challenges quite a lot of basic assumptions in phyiscs. It isn't, however, overly mathematical (save a few chapters midway through), and the ideas are fairly accessible. I've reviewed it in my book list.

Favourite fiction is a bit more difficult to pick one out... But a few of my favourites are: The Shining, Fatherland, The Man in the High Castle, Das Boot... Most of the fiction I read, though, are Doctor Who novels - and, believe me, there are PLENTY of those for me to get through, and should keep me entertained... forever, really!
