Jim's Review
🐛
Bryson somehow makes particle physics, geology, and paleontology laugh-out-loud funny. It packs more about the universe into one book than years of burrowing through textbooks. It's like having the world's most entertaining professor explain everything you were too afraid to ask. A perfect gateway to loving science. Five worms — a masterpiece of popular science.
