I was a Borders last night and picked up a copy of Stephen Hawking's A Briefer History of Time

Got a grandson that think I could get interested in this stuff.

Steven Hawking books are pathetic.

There are many other physics books that explain the origins of the univers much more plainly and coherently. Fancy graphics aside.

Refering to A Briefer History of Time, Stephen Hawking said he wanted to write a book that was understandable wherever you started reading it. You didn’t have to start at the beginning. Think about that for awile. What kind of book is that? A crappy one.
