Now abridged for YA audiences, this beautifully illustrated companion to celebrated scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson's popular podcast and National Geographic Channel TV show is an eye-opening journey for anyone curious about the complexities of our universe. For decades, beloved astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson has interpreted science with a combination of brainpower and charm that resonates with fans everywhere. In 2009, he founded StarTalk, the wildly popular podcast that became an Emmy-nominated talk show on the National Geographic Channel in 2015. Tyson's pioneering book takes the greatest hits from the airwaves to the page in one smart, richly illustrated compendium for young adult readers. Featuring vivid photography, thought-provoking sidebars, enlightening facts, and fun quotes from science and entertainment luminaries like Bill Nye and Josh Groban, StarTalk reimagines science's most challenging topics--from how the brain works to the physics of comic book superheroes--in a relatable, humorous way that will attract curious young readers.

Good book but beat up
I'll start off by saying my husband is super excited to read his. He loves Neil Degrasse Tyson (we gave our son the middle name Tyson in his honour) and just glancing through the book he's happy to have some new bathroom material. However, somehow the quality of the book we got is awful? As you can see in the pictures, it appears to be a used copy perhaps. The pages have no spring, and the outside is really beat up looking. The front and back covers are bent and scratched. I totally don't mind used copies of books (I buy with the used option on Amazon when possible), but not for the full price and not when I'm not aware that's what I'm buying.
