Unpositioned Something is wrong
Fashion, faith, and fantasy in the new physics of the universe / Roger Penrose

This work analyses the influence of fashion, faith, and fantasy on modern theoretical physics, specifically within string theory, quantum mechanics, and cosmology. It critiques current trends and suggests these forces may misdirect the scientific study of the universe.
