书籍简介

我们有自由意志吗？ 宇宙与神兼容吗？ 我们生活在计算机模拟中吗？ 宇宙会思考吗？

物理学家擅长复杂的研究，但他们不太擅长告诉我们为什么它很重要。 在这本有趣且具有开创性的书中，理论物理学家萨宾·霍森菲尔德（Sabine Hossenfelder）分析了我们为什么应该关心。 存在主义物理学借鉴了量子力学、黑洞、弦理论和粒子物理学的新研究成果，解释了现代物理学可以告诉我们的重大问题。

这本清晰而深刻的书充满了反直觉的见解，包括对其他顶尖科学家的采访，将重塑你对科学和我们所能知道的极限的理解。

Do we have free will? Is the universe compatible with God? Do we live in a computer simulation? Does the universe think?

Physicists are great at complicated research, but they are less good at telling us why it matters. In this entertaining and groundbreaking book, theoretical physicist Sabine Hossenfelder breaks down why we should care. Drawing on the latest research in quantum mechanics, black holes, string theory and particle physics, Existential Physics explains what modern physics can tell us about the big questions.

Filled with counterintuitive insights and including interviews with other leading scientists, this clear and yet profound book will reshape your understanding of science and the limits of what we can know.
