really liked it
bookshelves: non-fiction, 2009

Very readable, and I was actually surprised to realize I'd learned most of this information in an astronomy class I took in college. Who knew I was this educated?

The end of the book, where Hawking discusses the theories that scientists are currently trying to prove, started getting to be a bit above my head - in my lay opinion, I think it was a combination of Hawking getting a bit more vague and having fewer concrete facts and observations to state.

Lori Me too Abigail! I even own this, have for years, but not a crack in it yet. I keep waiting and waiting. For what, I have no idea! I guess when I'm no longer tending and being a chauffeur for Jake?
