Book Review: The Simpleton's guide to Astrophysics
This short book explains, from the singularity of the big bang to the likely singularity of Big Freeze, Big Crunch, Big Rip, or Big Bounce, the possible paths our universe may take. That too, without much ado of theories, equations, and other discouraging elements of science! Making whatever are the conclusions simple, are the short introduction to theory of relativity, the description of star's life cycle, and the concise summary of other relevant objects like wormholes.
I liked the book a lot. It made me comfortable to read and understand the popular discussions about ongoing research in these areas.
