pick5 ⭐️s!
A mind-blowing look at how our understanding of the universe continues to change drastically by leaps and bounds. The last two chapters, where it gets into quantum and string theory, I admit I will have to reread to fully absorb, but that‘s a fault on my end, not the author. Chown communicates scientific ideas in a way any layman can understand, even quoting famous rockstars and the great Douglas Adams to help illustrate his points.
