Relativity Editorial Review
"Existential Physics: A Scientist's Guide to Life's Biggest Questions" by Sabine Hossenfelder is a brilliant bridge between physics and philosophy, according to one reviewer. It is a critical thinking exercise without the math, identifies where scientists go beyond science in their pursuit of understanding, and frames and reframes the correct questions. The author has a real gift for explaining the concepts of physics in understandable terms, without getting bogged down with math that would leave many in the dust. However, some readers found the book difficult to follow and believed it did not adequately explain basic principles of physics. The author does provide a warning at the beginning of the book that it may negatively affect some readers' mental health, which some readers found to be a sign of the author's fundamental honesty. But, others wish the author had more appreciation for the complexity of the universe and its awesomeness. Overall, the book has received mixed reviews, with some finding it to be a great read and others struggling to understand it.
