James Coleman
Summary
As a renowned and highly praised astrophysicist, Neil DeGrasse Tyson authored arguably one of the best guides to the universe of all time. He makes the reader learn about the cosmos through witty humor and understandable comparisons. For example: "so dark matter is our frenemy. We have no idea how it works. It's kind of annoying." Since we know how 'frenemies' work, the reader then can apply that knowledge to the concepts we once found impossible to grasp. If there is any book one should read about the universe and our small place in it, that book would be Tyson's.
