The preview isn't long enough to discover how terrible this book is. Since gravity waves have recently been discovered, I was hoping for a deep exploration of the properties of gravity and how it impacts time/space, among other things. The author mentions GW detection, but doesn't offer much beyond what every dumbed-down mass-media article conveyed. I kept waiting for something new about gravitational properties, but nothing ever emerged and I wish I could get my money back for being misled this much. This book is more like a biography of early theorists who made assumptions about gravity, mostly Isaac Newton. It really should have been called that: Biographies of Isaac Newton and related thinkers from centuries ago. Also, the narrator doesn't sound intelligent, but that may be due to the way the book was written. One thought begins profoundly, only to close the type of shallow insight issued issued at a 7th-grade reading level.
