Time Reborn: From the Crisis in Physics to the Future of the Universe by Lee Smolin

challenging informative slow-paced

2.0

I think Smolin is attempting to make the case that cosmological physics needs a shift in some of the assumptions of "obvious truths" to make better progress in finding the underlying structure and laws of the universe. This is likely a fair point, but he spends the last part of the book delving into what amounted to a philosophical defense of his preferred method of resolving the issue. Despite his assertion that the real language of science is words, some math or even more precise wording may have made the book feel less wobbly - or at least cutting out the rambling epilogue (seriously, what was that?)
