not gonna rate this since it felt like it required some previous knowledge. but i don't doubt that spending decades in the field of astrophysics makes it hard for him to ‘dumb it down'. overall i liked it <3

Overall very accessible if you have some background in the subject matter. However, the book was also very concise (intentionally) so if you were hoping of diving deeper you might be disappointed.

As someone who wanted to learn more about astrophysics, this was an incredible read because it's accessible and well-written. Love how beautiful Neil deGrasse Tyson placed me in the world of astrophysics, beauty, and math all in one book that's less than 300 pages.

(Via audiobook) A beautiful celebration of our atomic kinship with the universe indeed. A great introduction to the cosmic perspective. A journey that made me feel small, yet full of wonder, filled me with curiosity and perked a few smiles.

I feel like it's more engaging and informative to watch Cosmos.
