Review of 'When We Cease to Understand the World' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
Interesting tale of the stories behind recent breakthroughs in modern mathematics and physics, placing them in their social and historical context. Stories became increasingly bizarre, with a touch of the magical realism that many Latinoamerican authors love - and that, I must confess, I despise.
Also an intro to quantum mechanics (the most I can take and/or understand lol). Thus some nice food for thought over the classic question of: does the universe behave following certain physical and mathematical patterns or are we creating them in order to make sense of reality?
TL;DR: as we say in Spanish, sin más.
