Astrophysics for People in a Hurry
What is the nature of space and time? How do we fit within the universe? How does the universe fit within us? There's no better guide through these mind-expanding questions than acclaimed astrophysicist and best-selling author Neil deGrasse Tyson.
But today, few of us have time to contemplate the cosmos. So Tyson brings the universe down to Earth succinctly and clearly, with sparkling wit, in tasty chapters consumable anytime and anywhere in your busy day.
While you wait for your morning coffee to brew, for the bus, the train, or a plane to arrive, Astrophysics for People in a Hurry will reveal just what you need to be fluent and ready for the next cosmic headlines: from the Big Bang to black holes, from quarks to quantum mechanics, and from the search for planets to the search for life in the universe.

Readers say *Astrophysics for People in a Hurry* is an accessible, engaging introduction to cosmic concepts, with clear explanations that spark curios...
Since of my daughters will be majoring in astro physics, I though I should read a book about this.
This is s good book that explains all the terms such as pulsar, quasar, black holes, and more.
I listened to this book twice and my mind does not comprehend science at all. I am more of a concrete person and all this hypothetical stuff just cause my brain to spin with my eyes glassing over. Science is NOT my strong suit. I am more of a crafty person.
