  • Back to school,I remember it well!

    If you took physics at school (like I did in the 70's), this will give you a good reminder of what it was all about. And maybe teach you some new stuff that has been recently found. A thoroughly good read. Even for newbies at physics, some exciting and easy learning to be had here.

  • Great

    The book doesn't go into that much detail on any of the topics, but what was explained was written very well, and was very enjoyable to read. If you're interested in these type of things and are starting out, this book is perfect. If you want lots of detail on each theory I would recommend a different book.

  • Makes you think

    It is a very readable book. A bit mind blowing and needs to be re-read to get a hang of the theories that are being put forward.
