An incredibly enjoyable and intelligent read - By: mark@atticmedia.com, 30 Jun 2000
Brilliant! I would totallly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in how physics got to where it is now. Without compromising the intelligence of the discussion, the book is easy to read. This & Feynmans books have awoken in interest in me in Physics I never thought I had...
Excellent in it's brief history of Physics. - By: , 16 Aug 1999
This book is a delight to read, if you are curious about Physics. It is especiallly gratifying from the perspective that it gives a brief history of the way physics has evolved since the field began. It's a great book to use when someone you know wants a more rational explanation of relativity.

perfect book of it's kind - By: , 25 Mar 1999
Even though I haven't studied half of the things in the book, with the vivid explanations that were given I understood it alll completely.
A Readable Summary of Physics from Newton through Einstein - By: , 23 Dec 1998
It has been two years since I read this book - but it impressed me so that I recommend it highly. It is quite readable without being condescending. It uses clear text & simple but essential diagrams to explain how physics evolved from Newton's work through to Einstein's. Only very basic mathematics is used (Can you add,subtract, multiply, & divide?) so the book is approachable by any reader who has at least a vague rememberance of physics. It's the best book of its type I have read.
