US astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson's latest book, Astrophysics for People in a Hurry, offers readers a quick and easy introduction to the cosmos.
Tyson says that for the book he combs the universe and handpicks those things that he believes are the most striking, mind-blowing, intriguing and mysterious, and then establishes a story arc.
Tyson's desire to share his knowledge of the universe is seemingly unquenchable. He has hosted the mind-expanding TV series Cosmos, a reboot of the original show presented by his mentor, Carl Sagan, and currently hosts Star Talk, a podcast that mixes cosmology and comedy.
