Tackling the darkest question in all of philosophy with raffish erudition (Dwight Garner, New York Times), author Jim Holt explores the greatest metaphysical mystery of all: why is there something rather than nothing? This runaway bestseller, which has captured the imagination of critics and the public alike, traces our latest efforts to grasp the origins of the universe. Holt adopts the role of cosmological detective, traveling the globe to interview a host of celebrated scientists, philosophers, and writers, testing the contentions of one against the theories of the other (Jeremy Bernstein, Wall Street Journal). As he interrogates his list of ontological culprits, the brilliant yet slyly humorous Holt contends that we might have been too narrow in limiting our suspects to God versus the Big Bang. This deft and consuming (David Ulin, Los Angeles Times) narrative humanizes the profound questions of meaning and existence it confronts."Binding Type: Paperback

Excellent build quality, easy to set up
The stand is sturdy and heavy. As far as I can tell, the wood and metal are genuine and high quality. I had no issues with the base (or included controller stand) being unstable or wobbly. Both were rock solid. You can slide the controller stand left or right, but there's no height adjustment for the headphone stand. However most headphones should still fit just fine.
Setup was very easy. There's a few screws to connect the parts but that's it, and there's really no way to put anything in the wrong spot. The controller stand doesn't physically attach to anything, but it does have little rubber feet to keep it from sliding around easily.
Overall a very well-designed and aesthetically pleasing addition to my desk!

Beautiful looking
If your looking for a great holder that will hold you headphones and gaming control in one organized place as well as one that looks good and is very durable look no further. It came in a nice box and was easy to put together only took a couple of minutes with the included hex key and nuts.

Exactly as I was hoping
I highly recommend this stand. I use taller headphones, so I was worried that this might be too small. But I’m happy to say that they fit great on this stand. The control stand hold great and is stable on its own as well as on the bottom plate. Over all this stand is sturdy and well built, looks great, and feels high quality.
