If any of you love gazing at the stars and wonder what the universe is made up of, I would strongly recommend reading this book on Astrophysics by one of the beloved writers on this area. Neil Degrasse Tyson captures all the latest discoveries in Astrophysics and delivers them in a witty capsule simplified to the extent possible. If you are acutely short of time to catch up with this ever-happening field of cosmology, this is the book to grab.

You may need more than a basic knowledge of physics and chemistry to comprehend everything in this book, but to be fair to Tyson, the field of Astrophysics cannot be simplified further.
