You have to remember that this isn't from the perspective of people educated in the individual disciplines to which the books apply but to a mass/general audience.
A lot of people became interested in physics way before people like Brian Cox came around because of ABHOT. I agree it didn't change the world like OOS, but it introduced complex stuff to people who would otherwise never have engaged with it.
