I used to read mostly fantasy and sci-fi for fun, but the last year or two I've been much more into science fact. Like most INTP's I love having at least a general knowledge of many topics. Here are some books I've read that have helped me sound like I know much more than I do, please feel free to add your own:
The Elegant Universe (String Thoery)
A Brief History of Time (Physiscs)
Chaos (Chaos Theory)
The Selfish Gene (Survival of the Fittest Gene vs Survival of the Fittest Organism)
Inventing Reality (Media Conglomeration/bias)
Evolutionary Wars (Evolution from a predator/prey perspective)
Emergence (Swarm Intelligence as seen in Cities, Brains, Ants, AI)
Godel Escher Bach - A Golden Thread (AI)
Fluid Concepts and Creative Analogies (AI)
The Third Chimpanzee (Human Evoloution)
The Lucifer Principle (History)
The Golden Ratio (The number Phi aka the golden number)
