The essential universe, from our most celebrated and beloved astrophysicist.

What is the nature of space and time? How do we fit within the universe? How does the universe fit within us? There’s no better guide through these mind-expanding questions than acclaimed astrophysicist and best-selling author Neil deGrasse Tyson.

But today, few of us have time to contemplate the cosmos. So Tyson brings the universe down to Earth succinctly and clearly, with sparkling wit, in tasty chapters consumable anytime and anywhere in your busy day.

While you wait for your morning coffee to brew, for the bus, the train, or a plane to arrive, Astrophysics for People in a Hurry will reveal just what you need to be fluent and ready for the next cosmic headlines: from the Big Bang to black holes, from quarks to quantum mechanics, and from the search for planets to the search for life in the universe.
Neil deGrasse Tyson is a fucking legend so when I saw that he had released a new book I had to get it, I've not read any of his previous books but I have spent countless hours watching all of his YouTube videos and documentaries.
I'm becoming a geek in a big way and since one of my mates borrowed A Brief History of Time and then decided to fuck off to the other side of the country without returning it this should be a good replacement, I'm looking forward to getting this one.
