«Will thrill readers but rarely perplex them . . . Galfard leaves exhilarated readers eager to share in the forthcoming discoveries.»

Booklist, Starred Review

«If Ms. Frizzle were a physics student of Stephen Hawking, she might have written The Universe in Your Hand, a wild tour through the reaches of time and space, from the interior of a proton to the Big Bang to the rough suburbs of a black hole. It's friendly, excitable, erudite, and cosmic.»

Jordan Ellenberg, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>How Not To Be Wrong</i>

«A useful book for readers to visualize the complex ideas of modern physics.»

Kirkus Reviews

«Entertaining and comprehensive . . . Readers looking to expand their knowledge of physics and cosmology will find everything they need here.»

Publishers Weekly, Starred Review

«Part personal conversation, part travelogue, and part science primer for the non-scientist, The Universe in Your Hand is a delightful and highly educational read.»

Jim Bell, author of <i>The Interstellar Age</i> and <i>Postcards from Mars</i>
