Ologies Podcast Suggestions
Ologies is a weekly science podcast hosted by Alie Ward. Each episode, Ward interviews an expert from a distinct scientific field.
This unofficial list contains book suggestions made by the host or by her guests. I avoided extremely technical books or papers. Currently from episode 1 to 525 More details on these books and their associated episodes in my ever evolving spreadsheet.
In the spreadsheet there are also books not found on Goodreads and general book recommendations (like the entire bibliography of a specific author or group of people)
Nonfiction: The Horror Genre
Nonfiction books about the mechanics, psychology, and other aspects of the horror genre.
Recommendations are always welcome!
Nonfiction about Horror Movies
Take a deep dive into the history and meaning of Horror Movies. What themes come back, zombie like, again and again? How do changes in society cause familiar monsters to mutate? And why do we seek out horror in troubled times?
