eburgardt 's review for:

A Short History Of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson

DID NOT FINISH: 49%

---

• Can best be described as a broad history of scientific progress up to the year 2003 (I read the first edition)
• By page 10 I was bordering on a thinking-too-hard-about-space-induced panic attack, by page 100 I was considering getting into theism again
• I got about halfway in before my eyes started glazing over from just the sheer amount of info I was trying to absorb, so I DNFed. May try the 2025 edition audiobook later down the line
