Let me give you an example. Every pop-sci book I pick up about quantum mechanics is at least 30% the Bohr–Einstein debates and 'spooky action'. Getting tired of reading the same stories about Claude Shannon whenever I pick up a book which touches Information theory and of course, Newton's quirks every time I read a book which touches on gravity. It's boring, tedious and quite frankly irrelevant. If I want to read a book about the history and evolution of a particular branch of science, that's fine. But whenever I start reading a quantum mechanics book and it starts off with 'It was a sunny day in Athens and Epicurus was pondering..' oh.. fuck off.
