Es ist ein Wunder, dass die Menschheit existiert, denn alles spricht gegen unser Überleben in einem feindlichen Universum, selbst die Lebensbedingungen auf der Erde. Trotz aller widrigen Umstände stellt sich die Frage: Wie ist unser Dasein möglich? Chris Ferrie zeigt auf, dass das Universum, obwohl es ein perfektes und faszinierendes System ist, auch Fehler macht. Alles um uns herum kann uns gefährden, selbst der Sauerstoff, den wir zum Atmen benötigen. Unsere einzigartige Erdatmosphäre hält uns gefangen, und die Frage, ob wir allein im Universum sind, bleibt unbeantwortet. In einer unterhaltsamen Erkundungsreise durch das Universum und die uns vertraute Welt erklärt Ferrie, dass unser Überleben letztlich von uns selbst abhängt. Doch in dieser Dunkelheit gibt es auch Hoffnung: einen Grund, das Universum zu lieben. Trotz aller Widrigkeiten ist es faszinierend und schön, das Universum zu erforschen. Ferrie betrachtet das Überleben der Menschheit aus einer neuen, überraschenden Perspektive, die wissenschaftlich fundiert, leicht verständlich und humorvoll ist. In einem Multiversum voller dystopischer Möglichkeiten sollten wir dankbar sein, dass wir in einem Universum leben, in dem dieses Buch existiert.
Sind wir mal ehrlich: Von dieser mysteriösen Quantenphysik gehört haben wir alle schon mal, aber verstehen tun sie die wenigsten. Und dann wäre da ja auch noch die Esoterik, die inzwischen längst auf den Quantenzug aufgesprungen ist. So stößt man bei einer schnellen Amazon-Suche viel schneller auf Bücher über heilsbringende Quantenenergien und allerlei pseudowissenschaftliche Theorien statt auf wirklich verständliche Sachbücher, die die Wunder der Quantenphysik verständlich erklären. Zeit, das zu ändern, dachte sich Quantenphysiker und Kultautor Chris Ferrie und entführt seine Leser mit „Quanten-Bullshit“ in die wundersame Welt der Quanten. Leichtfüßig, intelligent und urkomisch erklärt er die Grundlagen der Quantenphysik und entkräftet gleichzeitig esoterische Fake News und Pseudowissenschaften. "Ein erfrischend unkonventionell geschriebenes Buch für alle, die esoterischen Unsinn erkennen, benennen und grundlegende Ideen der Quantenphysik verstehen wollen." ~ Gerrit Stratmann/ DLFKultur
