About this book
A Really Short History of Nearly Everything is Bill Bryson's shortened version of A Short History of Nearly Everything, written for younger readers. Bryson takes a curious, humorous look at how the universe began, how scientists have worked out the age of the Earth, the structure of atoms, how life developed, and how we know what we know about the planet. He covers physics, geology and biology in plain language and tells the stories of the people who made the discoveries. It is a good introduction to science for young readers and for anyone who wants a quick overview.
