good books to read

I'm thinking of applying for pharmacy/chemistry. I was just wondering what are good books to read in order to write about on the personal statement. I know new scientist is one but any other views?

from the back:

"was there a beginning of time? could time run backwards? is the universe infinate or does it have boundries? these are just some of the questions considered in an internationally acclaimed masterpiece which begins by reviewing the great theories of the cosmos from newton to einstein, before delveing into the secrets which still lie at the heart of space and time"

Its not really necessary to read loads of books like that, but if you want to read something, make it the Pharmaceutical Journal.

You'll then be able to write about issues currently in the news regarding pharmacy.
