I will say that as a novice in this field of science, the better part of the first half is focused on our understanding of gravity came to be. This then leads into general relativity, space-time, and both of these concepts intersect at quantum gravity. This means that the vast majority of the book is accessible to people who have no experience in the field. I did expect this book to be a little bit more opaque (I don't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing) but it never really seemed to impact the validity of combining two seemingly irreconcilable yet, fundamental parts of physics. I do appreciate the modeling of spin networks and explaining why they are important. Overall, I think that this is a fairly good introductory book to quantum gravity and some of its implications for better understanding it.
