Actually, underwhelming in parts. The only thing to fear is loss of ambition. This book is a compilation of letters that the author received from strangers as well as letters he wrote to everyone and as opinion pieces. I am the opposite, but that's why I'm reading books like this. It never occurred to me that he would receive such voluminous correspondence, and much of it not at all related to his specialty--astrophysics. Death By Black Hole: And Other Cosmic Quandries, Accessory to War: The Unspoken Alliance Between Astrophysics and the Military, Origins: Fourteen Billion Years Of Cosmic Evolution.

Neil may think he is doing the science community some form of justice by disproving illiterate or uneducated writers presumptions but really he is coming off as arrogant and ultimately rude. Letters to the astrophysicist are personal so are the answers. Some answers given are glib, some are humorous, some are dead serious.

Readers may suspect that most of these letters date from the author's earlier years when, a newly minted celebrity, he still thrilled that many of his audience were pouring out their hearts.

Space and time form the very fabric of the cosmos.
A Brief History of Time is Hawking's classic introduction to today's most important scientific ideas. It's more of a biography of sorts, Dr Tyson defending or explaining his views in short notes, never going into much detail on anything.
He responds to the fans, the curious, the religious, and atheists in equal measure, and gives well thought out answers, all the while using (if not outright defending) the scientific method as a tool to better understand the world around us. My opinion on that, of course, is mostly irrelevant, but it did lessen my enjoyment of the book. In this hand-picked collection of 101 letters, Tyson draws upon cosmic perspectives to address a vast array of questions about science, faith, philosophy, life, and of course, Pluto. The most important thing that I learned from this book is that an objective reality is true irrespective of one's personal opinion or belief.

I bought this book for a gift so I can't rate it but based on his other books I would give it 5 stars.
Not really sure how to rate this one but I enjoyed reading his take on things, him standing up for himself and some of his mindblowing revelations.
Made me want to read his other books. But they are all searching for understanding, meaning and truth. Everything All at Once is an exciting, inspiring call to unleash the power of the nerd mindset that exists within us all. One note of caution, however. Courtney B. Vance,
Now, Tyson invites us to go behind the scenes of his public fame by revealing his correspondence with people across the globe who have sought him out in search of answers. – John McMurtrie, San Francisco Chronicle, "Tyson's insights are valuable for any leader, teacher, scientist or educator."

I gave it 4 stars, as he can sometimes be overly condescending.
