Existential Physics: A Scientist’s Guide to Life’s Biggest Questions (Paperback)

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

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.

It is hard not to enjoy the bold and easy spirit with which Hossenfelder begins her book... informative and engaging [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. 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 If I had six stars to give this book, I'd do it... Highly recommended'
