Lawrence Krauss is sometimes called Richard Dokins from the exact sciences. He is a serious physicist and one of the most famous popularizers of science in the world, with the works of which the Russian reader is just starting to get acquainted. Already the subtitle of his book emphasizes that the picture of the world drawn by science surpassed all religious epics in magnificence. This grandiose narrative unfolds in Krauss in two plans: as the evolution of the Universe, which ultimately led to our existence, and as the evolution of our understanding of the structure of this universe. A metaphor of the Platon cave passes through the entire book: step by step, science reveals illusions and moves to the true reality that underlies our world. Crasse"s guiding thread is light - not only the light of reason, but also the radiation itself, the properties of which are amazingly rethought at all stages of the development of science - from mechanics through the theory of electromagnetic waves to the theory of relativity, quantum electrodynamics, the physics of elementary particles and modern cosmology
