A great and informative read. Some concepts are a little difficult to fathom for the reader who hasn't delved into space and physics before, but I thought he did a good job none the less. I liked his views on the progression of science and thought his thought process in the book flowed well.

A really nice overview of modern cosmology. My only cavil with the book is that it is more "Cosmos" than "Caclulating". Don;t read it for the math, read it for the astrophysics.
