Most information for science is best organized in textbooks, however if you're looking for more prose versions, there's plenty of lectures that are quite interesting. I'll try and think of some that I have read/listened to over the years. You could ask /sci/ for a recommended reading list, as well. I think their sticky has a link to several concepts relevant to what you may be seeking.

>Math
Principa Mathematica - Sir Isaac Newton
I know some older sequence/series work that was done is often written in that "classical" tone.
>Physics
Plenty of Room at the Bottom - Richard Feynman (pretty much all of Feynman's stuff is good)
>Chemistry
The Book on the Composition of Alchemy (originally written in Arabic, but there are translations in most European languages)
>Biology
The Origin of Species - Charles Darwin
Systema Naturae - Carl Linneaus
