Astronomy has evolved much since the ancients first plotted celestial spheres around an earth that formed the center of the universe. Now, we have relativity, quantum physics, cosmology, and more to describe a universe more complex and wonderful than anything imagined by Ptolemy, Aristotle, and even Galileo and Newton. In A Brief History of Time, Stephen Hawking writes about the latest advances in cosmology and physics that have taught us so much about the evolution and future of space-time.
A Brief History of Time has been my first Official Science Book. I'm following it with Origins by Neil DeGrasse Tyson and Donald Goldsmith, as well as a couple science/cosmology/philosophy books later on.
