Been through Discworld three times but hadn't read The Science of Discworld. Know if it's any good?

I recall liking it well enough at the time but Lies to Children is honestly the only concept in it that was new to me. It's a decent enough Unseen University side story but that's just the framing for talking about real world physics.

Where else are you going to find another Discworld fix though?
