[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another Bill Bryson to try (other than A Walk in the Woods) is A Brief History of Nearly Everything. I read it on a vacation years ago and it had a profound impact on me. It tracks the history of the universe and the earth from the Big Bang to the rise of human civilization, focusing a lot on the history of our understanding of these things, getting into the development of math and physics and geology from the time of the ancient Greeks to the 20th century. But it's a layperson's overview of these things, so it's very accessible. I found it so soothing and informative. Thinking about it makes me want to read it again.[/quote] This is my go to audio book to listen to when I have insomnia![/quote]
