## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    One of the best science books ever
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2014*

First, “Atom” is one of the two best science books I’ve ever read. (*)  Krauss is both an excellent writer and an outstanding story-teller.  The majority of this book is compelling, at least to a science geek like me.  Carl Sagan famously said, “We are all star-stuff.”  Krauss uses the fictional life of an oxygen atom to explain to the reader HOW we all came to be made from star-stuff – how we came to be here – and speculations about the future and fate of the Universe.Second, this is definitely a geek-book and will be of interest only to those who desire to know the details how our world came be.This book was published in 2001 before the days of Kindle, so the Kindle version leaves something to be desired.  I’d recommend a hard copy.(*) my favorite science book ever …. “Unweaving the Rainbow: Science, Delusion and the Appetite for Wonder” Paperback – April 5, 2000  by Richard DawkinsAtom: An Odyssey from the Big Bang to Life on Earth...and Beyond [Kindle Edition] By Lawrence M. Krauss.  Review by John H Evans – October 24, 2014

    Now, that's an historical thread
  

*by P***T on Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2014*

What a brilliant concept!  From nucleosynthesis to cosmology to galaxy and star formation to chemistry to geology.  It's a thread that reaches back to the very beginning and touches so much interesting science along the way and, of course, Krauss is a great story teller, as always.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Following Matter Through Time
  

*by J***C on Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2015*

Okay, so I couldn't give it a 4.5 star rating which is where I would actually put it.  Krauss is a skillful writer.  In this book, it did seem to go slowly at times; but, overall, this is a fascinating concept.  Following the creation of the constituents of an oxygen atom, the primordial atoms from the big bang, through it being a part of a supernova and star dust, star and planet systems and being a part of living cells and on to the ultimate destiny at the end of the universe as we know or can know it, all of this kept me wanting to read instead of mowing the lawn or other interesting jobs around the house and property.  It's like what I always wished I could do, follow a toy boat from the local rivulet into creeks, rivers and eventually the Mississippi River and the Gulf of Mexico, only more interesting.
