Helpful Score: 3

This book is great. This is a very fascinating subject, and though the author does attempt to write for all audiences, he doesn't skimp out on the good stuff (even though it can be a bit over one's head). If you do not have too much training in physics, math, or other higher level sciences, that's ok. You may have to re-read a few paragraphs every now and then. This book is for the kind of person that likes to stop and think deeply about what he or she has just read. Fantastic book. James Gleick is marvelous.
