This fascinating book is a guide for the perplexedthose who are interested in science but are scared off by the technical detail. John Gribbin, an awardwinning writer, now stands back from the details and offers us a broad picture of scientific achievement at the end of the twentieth century. He describes the structure of particles within the atom, the origins of our own species, the birth of the universe, and much more, presenting science as a way of thinking about things, an honest view of the world in which no idea is accepted unless it is confirmed by experiment rather than wishful thinking.Modern scientific inquiry has developed over the past 400 years, turning away from the belief that the world is governed by magic and the supernatural and emerging instead as a coherent worldview in which everything fits together. This worldview, says Gribbin, is the greatest achievement of the human intellect. With eloquence and clarity he relates what scientists have learned about the nature of things, conveying the excitement of their discoveries as they investigate our place in the universe.

I picked up 'Almost Everyone's Guide to Science' for my son who's in high school. He loves the mix of humor and serious science—it makes learning enjoyable! The Yale Nota Bene edition is beautiful, perfect for showing off on a bookshelf.

Not What I Expected
I bought this book thinking it would be more in-depth. While it's entertaining, the content is a bit too light for someone looking for serious science. Also, the print is small, which made it hard to read at times.

Good Overview, But Lacks Depth
This guide is decent for a general overview of science and the universe, but I felt it skimmed a lot of topics without really going deep. It’s good for casual reading, but if you're looking for something more detailed, this might not cut it.
