There's a great book covering the history of refrigeration and its impact on science and society: http://www.amazon.com/Absolute-Zero-Conquest-Cold-Shachtman/dp/B003YCQF5U/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1345467617&sr=1-1&keywords=absolute+zero+and+the+conquest+of+cold

Very fun read. I found the part about the ice trade fascinating.

Absolutely. I got a real love of science reading various books through school. A few recommendations:

Achilles in the quantum universe

Absolute zero

Zero: Biography of a dangerous idea

I suppose Achilles and Zero are more about math than science or engineering, but I really liked them.
