Dark Matter and Dark Energy: The Hidden 95% of the Universe by Brian Clegg

4.0

This is not as easy a read as some of the more popular works by astrophysicists out there, but Brian Clegg does provide something for those left wanting to learn more about the mysterious topics of Dark Matter and Dark Energy. He does inject some humor into his writing, and while the technical parts are challenging for me, I enjoyed some of the insight he provides into some of the competition between scientists within astrophysics. He also makes it clear why the ideas of dark matter and dark energy are anything but certain at this point, emphasizing that neither of them are proven, only that there’s a lot of reason to believe they might exist.
