boureemusique 's review for:

A Universe from Nothing: Why There Is Something Rather Than Nothing by Lawrence M. Krauss

---

Listening to this book was cool, though I zoned out some. Instead of persistently rewinding, I absorbed what I could and may revisit it later. Dawkins's afterword was lovely. As other reviewers said, Krauss's Cosmology 101 was solid. His exploration of string theory was less so, but that wasn't the focus anyway. I enjoy ontology and science, but I think biological sciences are more my speed generally. Chemistry is hella-cool, but I usually think of it in terms of metaphor. Hence my majors in English and psychology and not anything useful :-)
