Book Review : Science But Not As We Know It DK Publishing by Ben Gillard

Blurb :

"Science But Not As We Know It takes complex scientific ideas and breaks them down for the non-scientist, from explaining the size of the Universe, to how black holes work, Schroedinger's cat and the Higgs boson. Difficult ideas and theories are compared to everyday things we are familiar with - forces become armies and electrons have personalities."

Notable quote: 

"The next generation of telescope will allow astronomers to search exoplanet atmosphere for the chemical signature of life." Goodreads Rating:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Review :

What can I say? This.book.is.the.best.thing.ever.in.my.life! The theories are explained with graphic illustrations and diagrams to show how the universe works, how the black hole works, how to catch a comet, etc. This book will have you saying 'I get it now!' over and over again. You no longer have to be a rocket scientist to understand rocket science! If you interested with astronomy whether you're a beginner or an expert, then I'll highly recommend this stunning book for you!
