Black Holes: The Key to Understanding the Universe by Jeff Forshaw, Brian Cox

Did not finish book. Stopped at 44%.

I am going to be honest, I did not finish this book. I really wanted to.  The authors are good writers, but they are either including too much math or not enough. I think Katie Mack, Neil deGrasse Tyson, or Kip Thorne have done better jobs making black holes and relativity interesting and more easily understood by non-physicists. If the authors want to focus on the mathematic proofs, they need to spend more time building up to it.  Again, I think they are great writers, but it felt like this required the reader to remember college level geometry, algebra, and calculus to really get.  There were parts of it were that was not done, but not enough to keep me going.
