Bill Bryson is not a physicist, and he makes a very big point of that: most of his books are travel writing, but he’s also written on the history of the English language, the British Isles, things like that.I can’t help but think of the ‘theory of everything’ – meant to connect all the laws of physics, a theory that so many physicists are searching for – when I look at the way he seems to be uniting all these different fields, and also at the title: I think you have a point, because it’s definitely a major goal in many areas of human thought to try to fuse seemingly disparate ideas. avg rating 4.20 — This book is an excellent guide for all beginners who want to learn more about the stars.
