We like reading compelling books on feats of science, technology and engineering derring-do! If you love reading about the amazing lives of radical inventors, laboratory wizards, eccentric investigators, audacious builders and their triumphs and tragedies, then you've found your club! We'll pick out a book, devour it cover-to-cover, and then meetup to discuss what we really liked about it. We'll pick different meeting places in or around Chicago, so everyone's welcome!

    "I dig on exactly these types of books, but am definitely not anywhere near science/engineering myself, so for the most part I don't get to talk about them with my friends."
