"Interesting read. Fred alan Wolf is one of my favorite authors. Although I feel like he leaves the crux of science a time or two, what he has to give is so worthwhile, I can overlook it.
I remember a concept in this book that specifically defined humans as a large filter because of the way our cerebral cortex is mapped out and how it functions. Immediately coming back to David Hume, the physics and physiology of Wolf made perfect sense. Without realizing it, he validated what Hume had come to understand even without the scientific knowledge. That's a rush for me.
I left this book feeling humbled at being human and believed I was standing next to an entire universe of "others" who play just as large a part in it as I do, if we play a part in it at all.
I don't personally believe in parallel universes. But that's ok because Wolf has so many contributions to existence in so many other ways, again what he has to give is so worthwhile, I can over look it.

"Fred Alan Wolf is one of the scientists from the movie What The Bleep Do We Know. He explains quantum physics in an way that was pretty easy to understand. Great book!"
