Reviews
"Stylish [and] stunningly accurate prose. We learn what the material world is like from the smallest quark to the largest galaxy and at all the levels in between . . . brims with strange and amazing facts . . . destined to become a modern classic of science writing." -- The New York Times "Bryson has made a career writing hilarious travelogues, and in many ways his latest is more of the same, except that this time Bryson hikes through the world of science." -- People "Bryson is surprisingly precise, brilliantly eccentric and nicely eloquent . . . a gifted storyteller has dared to retell the world's biggest story." -- Seattle Times "Hefty, highly researched and eminently readable." --Simon Winchester, The Globe and Mail "All non-scientists (and probably many specialized scientists, too) can learn a great deal from his lucid and amiable explanations." -- National Post "Bryson is a terrific stylist. You can' t help but enjoy his writing, for its cheer and buoyancy, and for the frequent demonstration of his peculiar, engaging turn of mind." -- Ottawa Citizen "Wonderfully readable. It is, in the best sense, learned." -- Winnipeg Free Press

Synopsis
One of the world's most beloved writers and New York Times bestselling author of A Walk in the Woods and The Body takes his ultimate journey--into the most intriguing and intractable questions that science seeks to answer. In A Walk in the Woods , Bill Bryson trekked the Appalachian Trail--well, most of it. In A Sunburned Country , he confronted some of the most lethal wildlife Australia has to offer. Now, in his biggest book, he confronts his greatest challenge: to understand--and, if possible, answer--the oldest, biggest questions we have posed about the universe and ourselves. Taking as territory everything from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization, Bryson seeks to understand how we got from there being nothing at all to there being us. To that end, he has attached himself to a host of the world's most advanced (and often obsessed) archaeologists, anthropologists, and mathematicians, travelling to their offices, laboratories, and field camps. He has read (or tried to read) their books, pestered them with questions, apprenticed himself to their powerful minds. A Short History of Nearly Everything is the record of this quest, and it is a sometimes profound, sometimes funny, and always supremely clear and entertaining adventure in the realms of human knowledge, as only Bill Bryson can render it.

    Arrived quickly, was packaged well, mostly matched the description. It has slight yellow staining/foxing to the top and bottom page edges that should have been listed.

    One of The Very Best Books On History, Science, And The Personalies Involved

    One of the best books I've read in the last 10 years. Incredible weaving of science, history, and personalities, all in a style that keeps your attention.

    Hilarious and educational!!

    This is one of the best books I have ever read! Why? It takes science and makes it so interesting and comprehensible because it's not about science but history. It's a great achievement in the history of science and books.

    A classic history of science

    A newer classic synopsis and history of world scientific knowledge. It teaches the span of the sciences while showing the struggles the scientists went through to make their discoveries. Physics, chemistry, astronomy, energy, geology, flight -- it's all here in an accessible format.

    The first 20 pages are worth the cost.

    Book arrived as agreed. Good condition. With a slip cover. Very pleased. This is a good book and as I am older now I enjoy reading hard cover books (bigger print).
