Review of 'Our Mathematical Universe' on 'GoodReads'

2 stars

The book lacks solid foundation. While there are some reasonable controversial theories, these mostly are buried under a pile of nonsense. For example, anthropic principle is not applied correctly, and it is implied that two for every two infinite sets there is always one-to-one function mapping the first set to another (cardinality, anyone?)

Informal chatty writing style does not help, too.
