Jim Al-Khalili’s Black Holes, Worm Holes and Time Machines is
another of the many books about the wonders of the Universe and what we know

understandable to the most untutored comes from every page. It’s successful,
it’s humorous and it’s up to date. A great crib for furtive, refreshing use.
Published by the Institute of Physics, £9.99, ISBN 0750305606.
