Astrophysics for People in a Hurry does not mean Astrophysics for dummies (me). Fortunately, I read this with my husband, who had a good time explaining (as best he could) the parts that were flying way over my head. Neil deGrasse Tyson does jump right in, so hold on! This short tome is exactly what it promises.

For me, this was a departure, or a different path from my normal read, and I'm glad to have taken this inspiring journey.
