    • Nitor en passant, stand back please!
    • I've read this book twice now, and find it's brilliance and intrigue undiminished. The illustrations and the accompanying captions are enormously insightful of their own accord. The text...

    • Could Have Been So Much Better
    • This book could have been a lot better.

      This is a book for people with some previous knowledge of quantum physics. It starts nicely enough but then jumps into scientific jargon without...

    • Not Science
    • This is not what one should expect from a scientist. Rarely will you find any logical proofs backing up outlandish statements made, so I say it is a bunch of rubbish, which lacks any rigid...

    • Fascinating and eye opening!
    • This is a great book for anyone interested in the secrets our universe hides in its darkest places. Part autobiography and part cosmological theory, it's a great picture of Professor Hawking's life...

    • Library Journal has it just right
    • BHaBU is a very uneven collection of essays. To LJ's criticisms I would add one more -- which the author himself notes at the outset: there is an enormous amount of repetition in this already...

    • Not for the Mathmatically Challenged
    • If you liked "The Road to reality" and have an understanding of the Mathmatics of Quantum Physics and Relativity then you will enjoy this book. Otherwise don't bother.
