A proposito di questo titolo

Featuring a special introduction written for the audiobook edition and read by the author

A Radio 4 Book Club Selection.

The ultimate eye-opening journey through time and space, A Short History of Nearly Everything is the biggest-selling popular science book of the 21st century and has sold over 2 million copies.

Bill Bryson describes himself as a reluctant traveller, but even when he stays safely at home he can't contain his curiosity about the world around him. A Short History of Nearly Everything is his quest to understand everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization - how we got from there, being nothing at all, to here, being us.

Bill Bryson's challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us, like geology, chemistry and particle physics, and see if there isn't some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. As a result, A Short History of Nearly Everything reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.

Possibly the best scientific primer ever published.
'A travelogue of science, with a witty, engaging, and well-informed guide who loves his patch and is desperate to share its delights with us' (Peter Atkins)

'Brims with strange and amazing facts...destined to become a modern classic of science writing' (Ed Regis)
'It deserves to sell as many copies as there are protons in the full stop that ends this review (at least 500,000,000,000).' (Craig Brown)
'The very book I have been looking for most of my life...Trunkloads of information, amazing stories and extraordinary personalities' (Christopher Matthew)
'The amount of ground covered is truly impressive...it's hard to imagine a better rough guide to science' (John Waller)
