TOP TEN TUESDAY: Nonfiction books I've added to by TBR recently

The topic for this week's Top Ten Tuesday is books from 'x' genre that have been recently added to my TBR pile. I chose nonfiction, and I looked at my lists at librarything and my library to see what I've recently added. Thanks to all you reviewers out there who give me all these great ideas!
Check out The Broke and the Bookish for future lists, and the find all the other participants.

Crows : Encounters with the wise guys of the Avian World  

by Candace Savage

I find crows fascinating! Each summer, there is a March of Crows in Charlottetown, where people dress up as crows and march to the park where all the real crows return each evening. Caw, caw!

Gathering Moss : a natural and cultural history of mosses 

by Robin Wall Kimmerer

Moss doesn't sound like it would be interesting, but when a person who has a passion for something writes about a seemingly mundane idea, it doesn't matter the topic: it will be good.

The Ghost Map : the Story of London's most terrifying epidemic -- and how it changed science, cities, and the modern world  

by Steven Johnson

Victorian era London is always interesting, and add an infectious disease? Sounds like gold! 

Bad science : Quacks, Hacks, and Big Pharma Flacks 

by Ben  Goldacre
I like good science, I like bad science, I like all science

Under the Banner of Heaven : a Story of Violent Faith 

by Jon Krakauer

Krakauer is always on his game (Into Thin Air, and Into the Wild) so I expect no less on this one.

Based on a True Story : a Memoir  

by Norm MacDonald

This one so interested me that I have it out from the library right now. Uncle Rusty from The Middle tells a good story. (Plus, Canadian!)

Patient H.M. : a Story of Memory, Madness, and Family Secrets  

by Luke Dittrich

Something I read last year (maybe Moonlighting with Einstein, about memory) mentioned this book. Brain research is cool.

H is for Hawk 

by Helen MacDonald

I've heard this one is good on audio, so I am waiting for my library to get the audio version.

This is Not My Life: a memoir of love, prison, and other complications 

by Diane Schoemperlen

Another Canadian book, I found this one on the Taylor Prize for Nonfiction writing as a finalist.

The Disappearing Spoon: And Other True Tales of Madness, Love, and the  History of the World from the Periodic Table of the Elements 

by Sam Kean

Nonfiction titles have the best subtitles! I still remember that grade eleven chemistry class, learning about the periodic table and how it all fit together, and how Mendeleev knew where to leave blanks and being blown away.
