What’s the nature of time and space? How can we fit inside the universe? How does the universe fit within us? There is no better guide through these mind-expanding questions than acclaimed astrophysicist and the #1 New York Times Best-selling author Neil deGrasse Tyson.

However at present, few of us have time to ponder the cosmos. So Tyson brings the universe down to Earth clearly and succinctly, with glowing wit, in digestible chapters consumable any place and anytime in your busy day. While waiting for your morning espresso to brew, or while waiting for the train, the bus, or the plane to arrive, Astrophysics for People in a Hurry (audiobook) will reveal just what you must be fluent and ready for the next cosmic headlines: from the big bang to black holes, from quarks to quantum mechanics, and from the search for planets to the search for life within the universe.

Time is relative, however, a few of us still haven’t got enough of it to completely soak up essentially the most salient aspects of such matters as dark matter, exoplanets, the Big Bang, and why so many objects in outer space are spherical.

Luckily, we now have Neil deGrasse Tyson, whose newest guide, “Astrophysics for People in a Hurry“, presents a shortcut to scientific literacy, with entertaining, bite-sized chapters that explore cosmic questions.
