Book Review: Great Read! Especially for non-physics majors.
Summary: 4 Stars
I read this book as an extra credit option in my physics class. I was not expecting much but was well pleased. The book is written very well and is extremely intriguing and interesting. Difficult concepts are explained clearly and the visuals are great. I recommend this book to everyone. Awesome!Book Review: a more understanble approach for the layman
Summary: 4 Stars
Hawking is the foremost physicist in the world, occupying the Newton chair at Oxford and he has attempted to explain in lay terms the complex mathematics underlying the structure of the universe. He is very helpful in a culture which pays so little attention to scienceBook Review: Very Brief
Summary: 4 Stars
The book is en elegant way to learn the complexity of cosmology for the first time. "A Brief History of Time" was much more extensive and elaborate and I doubt that the reader of that book needs to read "A Briefer History of Time" although there are some new subjects.Book Review: Brief History of Time
Summary: 4 Stars
I liked the book. It read well, but since I have read other books by Mr. Hawkings. This book contained a lot of the same material that was in some other work.
But there were some new material that I enjoyed reading.
Book Review: Wonderful
Summary: 4 Stars
Even briefer, this material requires a few readings to wrap the brain around. Very good examples though.
