I have a lot, probably too many to list, but the Scientific American Library series has some of the best science writing ever, by luminaries in the respective fields like John Wheeler, P.W. Atkins, Julian Schwinger, and others. https://www.thriftbooks.com/series/scientific-american-libra... (https://www.thriftbooks.com/series/scientific-american-library-series/92985/) I'm slowly collecting all of them, as they can be had in great condition for cheap.
