This book created a large amount of wonder within me. I do find science very interesting so naturally reading about the origins of physics and where it is at the moment was incredibly interesting.

The book was at times very complex and for that reason i hope to reread this book sometime in the future. Despite this the larger parts of the book are comprehensible. To enjoy the book you need to accept that you wont understand it all and instead enjoy aswell as reflect over the parts you do get.

At times the book feels sluggish but for the most part the book was excellent at keeping me engaged and interested. Hawkins humour which was admittadly very dry made me chuckle at several moments and i very much appreciate his "interferances" throughout the book.

I reccomend this book to people who want an effective passage through the basics of physics which still leaves room for wonder and lets you get a taste of the more advanced topics if you were to continue your studies.

I can really recommend it to everyone who has a remote interest in science. Hawkins is such an interesting (and funny) narrator who breaks down complex principles into understandable bits
