Recently I've devoted most of my time spent on literature to theory and fiction. However I've been meaning to dip my toe back into nonfiction and am at a loss considering the genre seems to be swamped with pages and pages that smell of self help. I read stuff like "the wave" and "the devils teeth" by Susan Casey which I liked enormously in high school. Something along those lines (detailed accounts of fringe groups engaging in esoteric/ dangerous/ etc. work) is what I'm looking for. Thanks for the help.

Suggestions of high concept science fiction would also be appreciated. Something analogous to carl sagan's contact.
