I liked it. If you've always wanted the basic concepts behind theoretical physics explained in simple terms, I would recommend this book.

Interesting "horses and duckies" interpretation of the many universes interpretation of quantum mechanics (Everett). A good historical survey of the development of quantum mechanics.

Schrodinger's Cat is one of the most compelling thoughts in physics for non-scientists. Gribbin uses the dead/alive cat theory as a starting point for an overview of history and main arguments in quantum theory.
