The universe has intrigued mankind throughout the ages, and in this book the author gives an account of inventions, discoveries, and more, which have contributed to our understanding of the universe.
   The history of humanity is just a small parenthesis in a universal perspective, but the historical milestones that have paved the way to what we now know is interesting reading, and the book offers a repetition of much of what we learned in school.
   But what will happen with the universe in the future. There is room for speculation, and the author contributes with interesting views.
