A Short History of Nearly Everything - Bill Bryson

I have just finished reading one of my Christmas presents, Bill Bryson’s “A Short History of Nearly Everything”. The book is quite weighty, at 570 odd pages long, but it is actually surprisingly easy and enjoyable to read… if you like numbers. And this book is full of some very large, and very small numbers, as the author tries to emphasis just how vast a place the universe is, or how small an atom is.
