Bill Bryson is an amazing author who knows how to combine a myriad of facts with light-hearted revelations. This book is for adults and children alike to grasp how lucky we are to be alive as a species on such a beautiful planet. The summing up at the end of each section is inspired. The book encourages us to ask: Isn't it time we appreciated what we have, the planet and other species, instead of taking life for granted! We need to learn about the history of our Universe to understand our place in it and this book is a brilliant way to start. If you need more in depth information, perhaps read A Short History of Nearly Everything by the same author
