About this listen

Fear of Physics is a lively, irreverent, and informative look at everything from the physics of boiling water to cutting-edge research at the observable limits of the universe. Rich with anecdotes and accessible examples, it nimbly ranges over the tools and thought behind the world of modern physics, taking the mystery out of what is essentially a very human intellectual endeavor.

Krauss has a staunch paradigm

Would you try another book written by Lawrence M. Krauss or narrated by Lawrence M. Krauss and David Smalley ?

Yeah of course i like krauss

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The least interesting is Krauss himself in this case.
A lot of the things he has against the church, religion and specifically christianity are no different than a curious 13 year old who is becoming skeptical, perhaps it is necessary, but i wish he would delve deeper into philosophy.

What three words best describe Lawrence M. Krauss and David Smalley ’s performance?

A good attempt.

Could you see Fear of Physics being made into a movie or a TV series? Who would the stars be?

No.

Any additional comments?

I have been religious and then skeptical, i then left religion and became an atheist for some time.
But on reflection now, the religious people i was involved with were not bad, they were not like some of the negative forces we see throughout the world.
