It's a fun little collection of essays about astrophysics stuff and what we know about the universe. He's a really fun author. Definitely lighter than the campbell stuff.
Oh yeah right Ogster!!! collection of essays about astrophysics .... I don't think so .... I'm not talking trashy romance novels (barf) ... just a good thriller ... nothing about gore and slasher stuff .... a good thick, not to deep sci-fi would be a good read for a long plane trip. Any other suggestions other than "fun" thermodynamics or quantum string theory books?
