Neil never disappoints. Both educational and entertaining.
This book is a nice collection of interesting science facts, and how they are relevant for our lives, as well as entertaining stories, jokes, and even cocktail recipes. Making science more available and appealing to everyone. Highly recommended!

Only reason for the 4 stars was cause of amazons questionable packaging that ruined and tore some of the pages from the bottom. With a book this big use a box not a bag Amazon.

Love this book, love the author. Bought this one as a gift, since we already have one. My daughter opens it on any page and just starts reading. Very well presented information, interesting, engaging. Great gift for any science geek or anyone you hope to interest in science.

More for kids or young adults
Got this as a gift for an adult, but it’s light reading more suitable for younger gen. Very cool graphics. Makes ideas easy to understand !

Great book for the curious and the knowledgeable
Bought this as a birthday gift for my husband, who loves Neil. This book makes a great gift for those who are new to astronomy and those who stare through telescopes on the regular. Big pictures, easy to digest things to know about the universe. Great purchase. Neil's other books are on my radar for holiday gifts.

Fascinating Book
It's hard to put this book down: filled, not only with a wealth of information but, with enough conjecture to endlessly stimulate the imagination.
