As I am working my way (slowly) through the Harvard Classics, a thought occured to me. It is mostly philosphy and literature; which is fine, but is there a "science" version of Harvard Classics or some other science focused anthology?
Bonus question! If you could create your own science anthology, what would you include in it? Bonus points if it is in the public domain!
