Lawrence Krauss has a new book out and at least one review is glowing. I think readers of FTB will especially like this graf:

(HuffPo) — A professor at Arizona State University, Krauss clearly relishes his iconoclastic role, gleefully demolishing all theories of creation that require a creator – that is, most religions. In the early 2000s, when he was teaching physics at Case Western Reserve University, he very publicly took on creationists in a fight over the science curriculum in Ohio public schools. But one has to hope that this book won’t appeal only to the partisans of the culture wars – it’s just too good and interesting for that. Krauss is genuinely in awe of the “wondrously strange” nature of our physical world, and his enthusiasm is infectious.

As a blogger with a big platform at the Great Orange Satan, I haven’t had to pay for a newly published science-y book in quite a while. Publishers and agents are often emailing me asking if it’s OK to send them to me for free. But no one did that on A Universe From Nothing, and it sounds damn interesting! I may be willing to break that freebie streak here. I may have no other choice!
