If this book proves anything it's that the areas that we don't understand are the most interesting. Although at first glance it presents as a typical pot-boiler it actually covers a range of specialist subjects including mathematics, quantum mechanics and evolutionary biology and considers questions such as "What is the true value of the Hubble Constant?", before going on to explain the issues and why it's now referred to as the Hubble Parameter! Fancy that . . .
