2016 Reading Challenge: A book recommended by a family member

A Brief History Of Time: From The Big Bang To Black Holes by Stephen Hawking

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I came to this book because of a reading challenge and this fell into the category of "A book recommended by a family member" (in this case my Mom's cousin) and it is not something I would have picked up on my own accord.

I was leery because my knowledge of physics comes from the TV show "The Big Bang Theory" and I stopped taking math in high school as soon as I was able to.

That being said, I enjoyed this book. I found it educational and surprisingly funny. This book made the topic approachable to the lay person who has no, or next to no, knowledge of physics and all the scientific theories about the creation of the universe.

I am glad I was challenged to read it and would recommend it to another.
