easy to read, nice writing style, just enough tech level to stay interesting without the boring heavy details that only a student would have to read. These books are for the individual interested in various scientific topics without getting to heavy handed in the math or concepts to make them a lifelong career.

Alternate Dimensions
This book is a very easy read, its has such interesting information in it, and Randall manages to cover it in a simplistic manner. All your science fiction dreams are made into a possibility by Randall's coverage of Physics. Though it may be mostly theory, nonetheless it is very fun to think about her views on the formation of the universe. The author states that her goal is to show the current physics in an interesting and readable manner, and I find that she has accomplished her goal very well.
