Astrophysics for People in a Hurry

medium: audiobook
this book urges you, encourages you and helps you develop a cosmic perspective. This one is definitely going in for a second read some time in future as one time isn't going to be enough to remember the details.
I learnt a lot of new facts and discoveries in the field of Astrophysics and Cosmology. I absolutely love the writing by Tyson. His writing is simple, scientifically detailed and draws in the bigger philosophical picture while discussing all aspects of our big vast universe.
I listen to it for five days while getting ready in morning and stepped out feeling like an important yet humble entity in our giant universe. This one also inspired me to pick up a Carl Sagan.
