Publisher's Summary
Humans have long sought to comprehend the enormities of cosmic space and time. Here, best selling science writer Timothy Ferris tells the story of that quest. He interweaves the majestic themes of astronomy, physics, religion, and philosophy with fresh and lasting portraits of the men and women who created what has been called our society's most precious treasure - its conception of the universe at large. Whether you're a scientist or a recreational stargazer, you'll delight in this compelling look at our search for understanding.

Really enjoyable, easy and informative listen.
I really enjoyed this overview. It was easy to listen to, the narrator’s voice felt like listening to a kind grandfather. The information was interesting and not dry at all. Very good!
