SIMPLY SUPERB!! This is the BEST book I have ever read. I had never ever known astronomy in such a detail. I was able to impress my physics teacher by asking questions that brought even her in utter chaos and by answering some questions that were meant for 12th grader and above. You will start digesting astronomy after readin it!
Absolutely wonderful! I'm only sixteen and before I read this book I knew very little about space. With this book I was even able to prove my chemistry teacher wrong on several occasions, one dealing with nuclear force. This book is excellent for anyone looking to expand their knowledge on how we came to be.It made me think on higher levels about the universe... Stephen Hawking's a Brief History of Time: A Reader's Companion was a time stoppingly good book. It made me think on a higher level about the universe, black holes, and time. Much of this information, like the fact that black holes give off radiation, I had not yet begun to comprehend in the far reaches of my younge mind. Stephen Hawking, unlike most people of his brain power (if there are any people with brain power equal to his), made his words in a form that even the most common of Joes could understand every atom of what he was trying to say. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about time and how it effects the universe and its black holes. I hope everyone likes it as muck as I do. Thank you and, Stephen, keep up the good work.
