I enjoyed the topics that are raised by the author in this book. They are indeed existential questions; some of them are also questioned by me, usually at 2 AM, contemplating the meaning of life :') ...sorry, I got distracted.
Some chapters are more interesting than others, so it has ups and downs throughout the book. Not all the topics (chapters) are ended up with existential crises. The author actually answers and explains it very well with our current understanding of physics. A bit anti-climatic, I suppose, but that is better than exaggerated mumbo-jumbo pseudoscience.
I love the way the author writes the book. To the point and straightforward. Her mindset is always scientifically oriented, but it doesn't make her hostile to religious points of few. I was impressed when she said that “God hypothesis is not wrong, it is just a scientific, just like unobservable multiverse theory (at least for the time being).” Well, that is a non-mainstream opinion compared to most authors of popular science books, ...which is great!
