I have a BS in Information Sciences from UW-Milwaukee. I’ve helped manage Physics Forums for over 22 years. I enjoy learning and discussing new scientific developments. STEM communication and policy are big interests as well. Currently a Sr. SEO Specialist at Shopify and writer at importsem.com
5/15. I am absolutely not familiar with most of the books:confused:
11/15. Who's this "Einstien" then?Fixed!

12/15
12/15 I either knew them or I didn't.
A high score might not necessarily indicate extent of scientific knowledge, it might be more scientific gossip and pop science.
8/15 I was surprised by a few that I got wrong.
15/15
Woot 12/15.
13 points out of 15. I have some kind of "obsession" with books and authors but there is always room for improvement!
7/15. Guessed like 80% of them. I need to read books.
My score- 14/15! Got only one wrong (which I obviously guessed!) Awesome list though (Y)
Slackers. 15/15, baby. (OK, two I had to guess.)
11/15
Lowest with 6/15 :cry:
8/15. :(
8
7/15. Not really an astro kinda guy.
11/14, because one question I did not answer by mistake. I am happy, as these 11 are the basic knowledge for someone passionate about physics.
@Greg Bernhardt: The 4th book has one of the alternatives giving his opinion on the book on the front cover, effectively ruling him out as the author. You may want to cover this name as well.
Surprisingly, I got 10/15.
About 1/2 guesses.
I got 8 out of 15. Not great, but, I think reasonably good. I only guessed correctly a couple of times, and on the ones that I got wrong, I was very much guessing.
