I will definitely check this out.

I rather enojyed his book "The Elegant Universe" about string-theory, easy to read for a layman and a fun read.

I'll assume this book is also of the same variety regarding his writing and explanations about detailed physics and theories involved.


Probably. There was a fair amount about String Theory in this book, actually. There were some sections where he would say stuff like "if you've read The Elegant Universe you can skim these bits." I don't think there would be a super large amount of overlap though; the first half of the book has very little to do with String Theory.
Insert theme music here.
