Existential Physics: A Scientists Guide to Lifes Biggest Questions is a clear, thoughtful paperback for curious readers who want science to explain the big philosophical puzzles. Perfect for parents, teachers, book lovers and gift buyers, this brand new paperback edition makes modern physics accessible — showing why questions about free will, God, simulation theory and the nature of consciousness matter, and what current research actually says about them. Product details: Title in this Set: Existential Physics: A Scientists Guide to Lifes Biggest Questions Condition: BRAND NEW Format: Paperback ISBN: 9781838950385 In this engaging book, theoretical physicist Sabine Hossenfelder steps out of the lab and into everyday conversations. As the Daily Mail put it, "Hossenfelder stands between us and incomprehension" — and TLS calls the book "informative and engaging." Drawing on quantum mechanics, black holes, string theory and particle physics, Hossenfelder explains what modern physics can tell us about age-old questions: Do we have free will? Is the universe compatible with God? Do we live in a computer simulation? Does the universe think? Why readers trust Sabine Hossenfelder Hossenfelder is an experienced communicator of science. She hosts a popular YouTube channel, has written the long-running blog Backreaction since 2006, and contributed to Nature, New Scientist and Quanta Magazine. Her previous trade book, Lost in Math: How Beauty Leads Physics Astray (Basic Books, 2018), received wide attention for its clear critique of prevailing trends in theoretical physics. Existential Physics continues her mission: translating technical research into practical answers for non-specialists. Book features and what you'll learn Readable explanations of complex topics: quantum mechanics, black holes, particle physics and string theory presented without jargon. Philosophical questions tied to scientific evidence — not speculation: Hossenfelder shows the limits and strengths of
