The Infinite Monkey Cage – How to Build a Universe by Brian Cox

5.0

This is an open-mindingly incredible book about our universe and how it works in its very detailed (yet simplified) theories, fascinating curiosities and original ideas on how to percieve a universe full of question marks and unknown faces. It is so weird yet curious how little we know about what surrounds us and still manage to discover more and more though time. How can something come out of nothing? This is what fascinates me most and pushed me further deep into the reading as I was kind of struggling in the middle paragraph. The great thing about it is its incredible power to inspire deeper research and plant curiosity into the minds of its readers. It was definitely a bit of a challenge for me to read since it was my first scientific read ever, but it inspired me to keep reading and looking for answers whether that is in books or in unbeaten paths discovering new theories and possibly getting progressively closer to the truth, taking one step closer to discovering a future of endless possibilities for our species and many others and for the discovering of places and life into the apparently dark and cold space that surrounds us. It inspired me to keep looking and fighting to contribute in the helping of future generations and species as well as it made me deeply interested in physics, astrophysics and cosmology pushing me to keep studying them as they might be what I want to pursue as a life carreer. I would definitely reccommend though language is not quite easy at first. I personally loved it. It completely changed my perspective of the world and made me consider everything in a ore methodic, scientific way.
