“History of the Universe is a well-rounded treatment of a vast body of facts that makes an excellent point of reference for any student of Big History. The science is clearly laid out, sometimes with more detail than we could possibly hope to fit into a thirteen week entry level undergraduate course…It is a very good work and an excellent contribution to the genre.”
