Description
The ultimate eye-opening journey through time and space, A Short History of Nearly Everything is the biggest-selling popular science book of the 21st century and has sold over 2 million copies. 'Possibly the best scientific primer ever published.' Economist 'Truly impressive...It's hard to imagine a better rough guide to science.' Guardian 'A travelogue of science, with a witty, engaging, and well-informed guide' The Times Bill Bryson describes himself as a reluctant traveller, but even when he stays safely at home he can't contain his curiosity about the world around him. A Short History of Nearly Everything is his quest to understand everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization - how we got from there, being nothing at all, to here, being us. Bill Bryson's challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us, like geology, chemistry and particle physics, and see if there isn't some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. As a result, A Short History of Nearly Everything reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.

Must buy!
This is a wonderful book. A compact encyclopedia of science. The author has explained nearly everything about diverse branches of science as they have developed over centuries. The complex concepts of science have been explained in simple language, yet retaining the accuracy and authencity. Author's interviews with different researchers working in different labs has added to the value of the book. Icing on the cake is the wit and humour if the author.

Cover of book has a velvet feel. Pages are clear and print is good. It might look like the book is pirated but its not. Its with every Penguin publication books.

Fabulous!
I was initially doubtful of this book because, I just finished reading sapiens, and was wondering if it will be the same thing again. But no. This book is different and exciting in its own ways. Go for it. It deserves a place in your collection.
