Bang! by Brian May
Pick up a copy of Bang! It will, it will rock you.
Highly recommended for community library astrology collections and for anyone who wants a unbiased look at the universe itselfMidwest Book Review 2008 The story is told in clear, straightforward terms, in the strict order in which the events happened, and uses no mathematics. -- Steve Goddard History Wire - Where the Past Comes Alive 2008 There's at least one rock star who knows a thing ot two about real stars. -- Jeff Foust Space Review 2008 The scope of the book is ambitious; its hard to cram in antimatter and inflation in one chapter and then skip to planetary science and biology in the next. Still, the authors do a wonderful job tackling a broad array of cosmic subjects. This is just the kind of book that would have fired up my imagination as a kid!... In the end, Bang! Is an excellent illustrated compendium for what are perhaps weightier and less accessible tomes.
