Recent Physics Books: Gravitational Waves and Brief Lessons

I was on vacation last week, but brought along a bit of work in the form of a book I had agreed to review for another publication. Having gotten into pop-science reading mode for that, I also polished off a couple of other short pop-physics books that have gotten some buzz recently, Janna Levin’s Black Hole Blues And Other Songs From Outer Space and Carlo Rovelli’s Seven Brief Lessons on Physics. These are both short (the ebook edition of Black Hole Blues is 206 pages, while Rovelli’s lessons take up just 57 electronic pages), and quick, engaging reads, totally suited for reading on trains, planes, and cruise ships.
