Hossenfelder also weaves in histories of physics.

She weaves in impressively clear, concise, and untechnical explanations of the theoretical physics topics referenced in the interviews. They also provide a window on the way theoretical physicists think and work. The interviewees reveal interesting ideas and insights. Hossenfelder describes why and how she interviews each physicist. Several of the interviewees are acknowledged luminaries, while a few are working on their own at the fringes of science. What is this book and should I read it? Lost in Math is organized around about a dozen captivating interviews with physicists-mostly theoretical physicists. And how could she speak so apparently irreverently about an interaction with Steven Weinberg? This is really going to piss some people off, and if I'm associated with it in any way, I could be kicked off the island. The politicians are going to run with this and use it as ammunition against science. I can't believe she just painted the LHC as a waste of money. The experiments didn't reveal anything new,” I started freaking out a little bit. 5: Ideal Theories:… In which… I fly to Austin, let Steven Weinberg talk at me, and realize just how much we do to avoid boredom,” and the first part of the preface, “They were so sure, they bet billions on it… But where physicists expected a breakthrough, the ground wouldn't give. After using my superior research skills to locate and read the blurb, “A contrarian argues that modern physicists' obsession with beauty has given us wonderful math but bad science,” the table of contents, e.g., “Chap. I was approached about this book review late last summer.
