I started this last week, but I got bored with it and quit about 1/3 of the way through. It was pretty dry and wasn't saying anything new to me. Has anyone else gotten further? Does it get better?

I really enjoyed it, especially the chapter about the cosmological arguments. I actually learned some physics, in addition to getting the details on some of these arguments. I guess I would say that if you didn't already read that chapter, I'd recommend it.
