This was fun too. Nothing special, but an enjoyable read.My one gripe (with many of his books, this one especially) is that, if I had a pound for every time he says "...and it turns out..." I'd not be rich, but I'd be pretty well off. And that's both annoying and a pity because people say that (or the classic "Research has shown...") when they don't want to reveal or cite their sources. I get that it's a book for the layperson (like me) but I think he does both himself and readers a disservice by this. He's even at it in the preface to the book....Aside from that, he's a great writer I think, and can make the complex subject matter very accessible and quite funny too. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A real eye opener! *by I***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 February 2012* I'm a Physics graduate and just love this book!It is one of the only accounts that really makes it clear that the 'Big Bang' is not really thought to be an explosion, as many believe, but a colapse of matter from the incredible amount of energy. It is also one of the clearest accounts that I've come across.For the lay person, chapter 2 (It's a bit heavy going) on 'God's number' can be skimmed without missing too much of the main thrust of the account.The real beauty in this book comes at the end. I won't spoil it, but I've introduced it to a few people I know and they have all been blown away!Please read it!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brain-Food Buffet *by D***D on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 June 2010* Don't be deceived by the cartoon on the cover. This fabulous book starts off with a gentle slope down to the water hole but soon I found myself waist-deep in mind-boggling ideas. The book is written in a friendly, conversational language with occasional references to Douglas Adams but the pleasant words are there only to help you digest the collossal ideas.I found this book highly entertaining and informative but it did take me a while to read it, because my brain kept getting indigestion: so many ideas, some mutually-exclusive. It isn't a book to read in one sitting - more like a brain-food buffet to keep returning to between drinks and conversations with fellow diners. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/59510597-the-never-ending-days-of-being-dead-dispatches-from-front](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/59510597-the-never-ending-days-of-being-dead-dispatches-from-front) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-10-25*
