A very thought provoking read.
I’d love to say I understood everything in this book, but having never taken a physics coarse, there were some things that were difficult for me to understand. However, I think Hawking does a good job of simplifying the information and giving real-world examples that make the concepts easier to digest. His various jokes and light hearted tone also made the book entertaining.
I enjoyed this book and think it is an important resource to bring theory to laypeople in order to gain knowledge of the universe and how we as humans have come to understand it.
