Although this is a philosophy book, it is also a physics book. I was particularly amazed with the first chapter, it gives a lot of information in just the right way. However, I would recommend skipping Chapters 3-5, and 9-10. This will cut the 300 page book in half and make it much more bearable. Doing so will cause you to miss the point of the book, but that is not a problem considering that the point of the book is to make a philosophical argument about science. There is good exposition of Einstein's Special Theory to be found in it, so it is definitely a worthwhile read.
