Most important book written on science this century. Everyone interested in scientific thought should read it.
Coined the much-abused term "paradigm shift."

applicable to anyone with a scientific and/or creative mind. not at all a strictly scientific book. my dad prescribed it to me in middle school and i've been turning it over in my head ever since.
yeah, paradigm shift has become almost as annoying as "synergy."
