This book conveys the awe and love I feel for the universe and our place in the stars. It also contains a lot of very interesting science in its sci fi, which makes it right up my alley. My only complaint (and it is minor) is that parts of the book drag a bit in the middle, but overall this book really captures the mind and imagination.
