Trade Review
"If only Adam Rutherford and Hannah Fry were on tap to all of us, all the time: we could turn to them whenever we wanted delicious explanations, narratives, and theories to make sense of the material world. But we do have this deeply addictive book as a companion. The pair have such a gift for making life, numbers, and the forces at work in the universe all the richer, stranger, funnier, and more marvelous." -- Stephen Fry
"Like the universe itself, this book is multifaceted, surprising, and full of wonders. It’s also funny, wise, and exceedingly brainy. You really owe it to yourself to read it." -- Tim Harford
"A wonderfully engaging blend of wit, enthusiasm, clarity, and knowledge." -- Bill Bryson
"The illustrations are truly excellent." -- Alice Roberts
"Compelling popular science with an ambitious underlying theme." -- Kirkus Reviews
"[T]eeming with curious facts and interesting anecdotes....The science is detailed and comprehensive in this fun and fascinating read." -- Booklist
"[A]n informative and entertaining look into the science behind everyday phenomena and questions….Their writing is clever and personable, and they incorporate immersive stories of culture, art, and rudimentary science to explain seemingly complex topics…in consumable morsels." -- Library Journal
