zaminhusain 's review for:

A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking
3.0

The parts of the book that I understood were really great. What early scientists believed, why they believed it, and what discoveries/observations were made to shift that belief were all very fascinating. And then the science got more abstract and I understood only parts of it-- for example, I understand the Twin Paradox, but I don't understand how we know it, or what some of the greater implications of it are. By the time I got to the Fate of the Universe and Wormholes, I was only following the descriptive statements and not any of the logic behind them.
