A really short history of nearly everything
Bryson, Bill2020
Book
This title covers the wonder and mysteries of time and space, the crackpot theories which held sway for far too long, the discoveries which advanced whole areas of science when people were looking for something else, and the fact that, somehow, the universe exists and, against all odds, life came to be on this planet we call home.
