Good Day !

Hi Everyone! I would like to ask if anybody out there can suggest what would be the best and fun to read physics book out there? With a content about History of Physics ; How it Started . Trivia and Interesting facts about Physics and many more.

If you can find some of Asimov's books explaining various science topics, they are all pretty fun, even if they are getting a bit outdated.

Weinberg's _The First Three Minutes_ and Hawking's _Brief History of Time_ are good intros to cosmology. Sagan's _Cosmos_ (preferably the big hard cover, though expensive, and the vids if you can find them, also likely expensive) is a lot of fun.

I'm reading Hyperspace by Michio Kaku at the moment, I would highly recommend it.
