- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wow! This book is amazing. It covers so many fascinating cosmology questions, theories and vast speculations about the known & unknown. Everything from Dark Energy vs Dark Matter, String Theory vs M Theory, Steady State vs Big Bang and my favorite Black Holes!
Very highly recommended.
