Very readable and comprehensive
574 Pages thick but the book is so interesting that it will grip u in the first chapter itself if u have the slightest interest in science or humans or history. Covers Physics, Chemistry, Geology, Biology, Anthropology, Astronomy and a lot more sciences and their evolution over the last 300-400 years. We know a lot yet we hardly know anything as yet. The most humbling thing is if Nature wants the human species can be at the brink of extinction in around 2 hours flat. Just the yellowstone volcano has to blow out with full power. 😄 The book is recommended to develop gratitude for our current existence and good fortune and truely does a good job at that. Humans are the nature’s best creation as yet and also the most irresponsible. We have a responsibility that remains largely ignored.

Easy to read, beginner friendly with depth in understanding.
Haven't read the entire book yet, but judging by the introduction part and a quick overlook, and way of writing and explanation. It's good for beginners, because I'm a beginner in reading and it's drawing my attention and interesting good. And I'm a bit confused about everything going on around me and find out, this book can help me process everything with a single vision. So I bought this book, judging by the introduction part it seems promising, now let's see what it delivers.

Product seems original (Seller: Cocoblu Retail)
To be honest, I was just concerned about the authenticity of this book and I have to say this one seems original. The letter printing is crisp and sharp and the size of the book matches the dimensions described. To nitpick, I would just say that the packaging was not that great - I mean there was no bubble wrap; it was just delivered as it is. Hopefully, there was no damage, but they could've done a better job. Yet to read it, will review once I'm done
