Existential Physics

Rezensionen / Stimmen

Hossenfelder may popularise science but she doesn't dumb it down... she stands between us and total incomprehension... That's my kind of science writer * Daily Mail * Hossenfelder is a unique writing talent and a unique science popularizer. You will come away from this book enriched, and will think about the world differently than you did before. * Lawrence Krauss, theoretical physicist and bestselling author * [Existential Physics] takes you on a thought provoking, tantalising and illuminating journey. It clearly delineates what physics can tell us about ourselves and the universe we inhabit, and thus what it cannot. * Physics Education * Hossenfelder rightly believes that a better understanding of the limitations of science will benefit society. This comes across loud and clear in her book, which I found fun to read and really made me think about the scientific method and the big questions in life * Physics World * If I had six stars to give this book, I'd do it... Highly recommended' * Popular Science (5* review) * An informed and entertaining guide to what science can and cannot tell us. * The Wall Street Journal * Stimulating . . . encourage[s] readers to push past well-trod assumptions [...] and have fun doing so. * Science Magazine * Entertaining * Los Angeles Times * Hossenfelder elegantly illustrates complex ideas in straightforward, layfriendly language . . . [She] takes readers on a riveting cerebral journey through surprisingly confounding differences between scientific method and storytelling . . . Existential Physics is spectacular, and a must-read for all who ponder the purpose of existence. * Booklist * An intriguing book fully of highly opinionated and convincing arguments. * Kirkus Reviews * Excellent * Library Journal *
