“Existential Physics” explores the limitations of modern physics and questions the foundations of our understanding of the universe.
"Existential Physics" by Sabine Hossenfelder is a thought-provoking exploration of the current state of physics and its philosophical implications. Hossenfelder challenges the prevailing paradigms and theories in physics, arguing that the field has become too focused on aesthetic criteria and mathematical elegance rather than empirical evidence. The book questions the nature of scientific progress, the search for a "Theory of Everything," and the concept of beauty in physics. Hossenfelder encourages readers to critically examine the foundations of modern physics and emphasizes the importance of empirical testing and open-mindedness in advancing our understanding of the universe. "Existential Physics" offers a refreshing perspective on the philosophical and scientific aspects of physics, urging a reconsideration of the fundamental questions that drive our exploration of the cosmos.
