Astrophysics & Space Science Editorial Review
A Universe from Nothing by Lawrence Krauss Lawrence Krauss's book, A Universe from Nothing, attempts to answer the question of why anything exists and presents various hypotheses and speculations regarding the existence of the universe. However, some readers found the book to be overly wordy and felt that the premise was never proven. They also believed that the material could have been condensed into a single chapter. These readers were disappointed with the book and decided to resell it. On the other hand, there were readers who found the book inspiring and thought-provoking. They appreciated the Q&A section at the end of the book and felt that it extended the limits of their thinking. These readers found Krauss's ideas about the creation of the universe without a nonphysical first-cause to be plausible and enjoyed the marriage of creative thought and mathematics in the book. They believed that science is the way to understand our existence and evolve as humans. Some readers praised Krauss for presenting the concept of "nothing" as unstable and fascinating. They acknowledged that the longer sentences in the book were difficult to follow for mathematically challenged readers and suggested that Krauss could have provided better summaries for each chapter. Nevertheless, they found the book worthwhile and highly recommended it. Overall, A Universe from Nothing received mixed reviews. While some readers found it to be a painful read that lacked a clear premise, others found it to be a thought-provoking and inspiring book. However, it is important to note that the book may be challenging for readers who are new to scientific topics.
