#MetaScienceReads Books
What are #MetaScienceReads?
- a piece we have read in the MetaScience reading group
- something we have ordered in for the MetaScience office bookshelf
- a MetaScience project output for you to read
- the odd personal recommendation thrown in for good measure
#MetaScienceReads is not meant to be a definitive list, nor is it endorsement of any particular view. It is merely (hopefully!) a resource for people interested in finding something new to read on the subject. We hope that you find it useful :)
