But if pushed, I'd go for both.

I'd take some form of e-book reader and a couple of dozens of books
that don't require much intellectual power to process. Some easy SF or
early Deen Koontz or Stephen Coonts or something.
Books like those above, I'd leave for nice, Winter nights at home
with a hot drink and snacks, and perhaps some notepaper and a pen.
Some may say that you should *NEVER* take books on a holiday and
that's a valid viewpoint if you think of the time as a period of
gaining new experiences and seeing new things. Meeting new and exotic strangers, eating new and weird food and nearly dying from them,
petting cute furries that don't exist in your home town and just
seeing stuff that is *different*. These experiences should be enjoyed, reveled in, locked into your memory forever.
But ... and this is more and more important as the Century passes ...
due to Security Theatre among other idiocies, there will be extended
times of blankness when you can't go anywhere, can't wander off, can't
even talk to anyone because of ten million screaming gremlins so books
are going to be a boon. Headphones and loud music, too.
Even when you're travelling, on the bus, on the jet, on the boat or
on the Orion, books are useful as a distraction if nothing else.
But you don't want books whose reading means that you need to *think* especially not to think deeply. That way, you miss your flight or the
call to lunch or both.
Most of us can set our "watchdogs" to alert us when our flight is
called so we stop eating or watching the laptop's TV program or
whatever we're doing but that may not work when we concentrate on deep
stuff.
Sorry, the foregoing was all just my opinion. Maybe you *can* wake up
from a mathematical stupor instantly. I know people who can't. They
blink like a half-awake cat for some seconds before Reality becomes
part of their world.
Maths is hard. It takes thinking.
Alan. E. Nourse is easier.
But if pushed, I'd go for both. You never know how long the stay in
the airport is going to be and running out of book is horrible. It
might force you to actually *talk* to people. :)

I also undecided in this matter. :-(

Don't mimic Buridan's ass, and
starve to death instead of choosing.
Could it ever be more appropriate to flip a coin
than to choose between books on Bayes' theorem?

In this paper we consider the question whether adistributed network of sensors and data processors
Yeah, of course, in a vulgar setting, a
stone is a stone, quite unlike what a
petrologist sees in a stone.
But of course we shouldn't shy away the

dream career, just tell them math isnโt
scary and science is fun.

Ukraine is eager to receive the anti-aircraft weapons by any means
necessary, its foreign minister has said https://www.r%74.com/russia/595989-kuleba-patriot-missiles-lease/
Nobody will lease you anything, if probability of it getting smacked is
100%. lol
phenomenal idea to avoid payment ever.
After the U.S and Co went on a drone shooting spree the other day, just go
to Jordan with a small shovel, a sieve, and a metal detector. You'll find hundreds and hundreds of them for free, some assembly required !
The Little Green jew should buy his Patriots with a credit card that has "Purchase Protection" for the first year so he can get his money back when Russia destroys them.
Zelensky should pay for them out of his own Nazi bank account
You should stop sucking other peoples dick so much.
