This is factually untrue - I just finished a new book yesterday - but it does feel that way.

Recommend something to me! Especially nonfiction - I really don't read much of that, so I can promise that I'll never have read whatever you recommend! (Whereas if you recommend anything kidlit or YA there's better than even odds that I've read it.)

Later I'll post up my own list of random recommendations for everybody, but right now I really must dash.

My tastes in nonfiction tend towards the medical, but you do post some medical links, so here are some suggestions:

The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks (medical ethics, issues around treatment of minorities)
And The Band Played On (early days of HIV/AIDS)
Do No Harm (stories of neurosurgery)
Band Aid for a Broken Leg (MSF worker in Africa)
Mapheads (geography lovers)
No More Worlds to Conquer (people who achieved things like Olympic medals, but focusing on what they did next)

Hope some of these appeal :)
