Review: The Universe Story: From the Primordial Flaring Forth to the Ecozoic Era--A Celebration of the Unfol

User Review  - Nicol - Goodreads

Read this for an Indian philosophy class. I found this book to be very philosophically comforting. Great read. Highly recommend to everyone who wants to think a bit. The book may not present both sides of the coin, but it's still worth reading & thinking about. Read full review
