I want to buy a science-related gift for my relative. He is one of the science nerds he likes science material. Can anyone suggest to me which gift should I buy to impress him?

I would imagine the hive mind could help on this, but we will be more effective if you can first answer these questions:
What's your price range, how fast do you need it, and do you know what this relative likes more specifically than "science"?
-
How old?
Native language?
Practical or theoretical interest?
-
The important thing it that it should be something he wants. The best ideas could come from him. With some care, and a range of ideas, you could still surprise him, if that's what you want to do.

An oldie but a goldie, one of my favourite popular science books of all time is "Right Hand, Left Hand" by Chris McManus. A brilliant book and a worthy winner of both the Wellcome and Aventis book prizes.
