A Really Short History of Nearly Everything

A Really Short History of Nearly Everything

Enter the world of science as Bill Bryson unmasks the mysteries of the universe.

Did you know that:

â€¢ Every atom in your body has almost certainly passed through several stars and been part of millions of organisms on its way to being you?

â€¢ If you are an average-sized kid, you have enough potential energy inside you to explode with the force of several hydrogen bombs?

Andâ€”What happened to dinosaurs? How big is the universe? Why are oceans salty? Is a meteor going to hit us?

Tackling everything from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization, Bill Brysonâ€™s inimitable storytelling skill makes the why, how, and, just as importantly, the who of scientific discovery entertaining and accessible for young readers.
