Excellent Lawrence. As a retired physician, the most important and honest 3 words I could ever say to my patients were “I don’t know.” And very early in my career I added a 4th word—-“yet.” This was a challenge to myself to always do my best to discover the answers that I didn’t know at the time.
I just finished chapter 1 of The Edge of knowledge. As I expected, my understanding has increased by leaps and bounds. The Apple Books sample I read was only a fraction of the chapter.
For a long time, especially since Arizona, I have been curious to know where I can find more information about Alan Guth’s theory of inflation. I found the answer, namely that you wrote about it in A Universe from Nothing. I think that was the first book of yours that I read, but the significance of that topic escaped me. I’ll reread the book in the near future.
Your books are like Pringles potato chips — nobody can read just one! Now, on to chapter 2.
I just finished chapter 2. I’m really glad I read Hiding in the Mirror. Tomorrow chapter 3.
Hi Lawrence, thanks for this final excerpt. The book is wonderfulIy descriptive of the universe’s secrets. Thoughtful and challenging, your writing brought to my mind something my father would say; ”A man’s reach should exceed his grasp.” I have a sneaky suspicion this book will have a positive impact on young minds of all ages.
Congratulations on the release day! Both the Apple Book edition that I preordered, and the audible version arrived at the stoke of midnight this morning. This will be the first time I’ve read a book while listening. I’m really looking forward to it.
You've already got that impact on an aged still very curious individual indeed: me. Thanks so much.
