I'm thinking about picking up a copy of "A brief history of time"

[Kytiara]

I've read most of it, though I keep forgetting to go back and finish it. It really is interesting if you like that sort of thing.

One thing to keep in mind though, it was written quite awhile ago and Hawking has changed his mind about some of the conclusions he made. I'm not entirely clear on which ones, I just had a physicist friend tell me that it was definitly a bit dated, but still an excellent book.
