The mere fact that he is hiding while traveling underground to reach lab classes, spells H-E-L-P, psych-co-therapy.

It's the same story with me. I am definitely not a physic, but I have read a lot of sci-fi and popular books about physics. Therefore, this book was not very difficult for me.NetMassimo wrote: ↑01 Nov 2020, 11:44 It depends a lot on the reader's knowledge. I read "hard" science fiction and scientific articles, so it wasn't a problem for me. On the other hand, I understand that for someone with no knowledge of quantum physics the topic might have been too complex.

I agree with you. Sometimes authors have to expand on certain complex or specific topics because otherwise readers would no understand the topic entirely. I would much rather be confused because I am no expert on certain topic that have a book with a scarcity of details.lavkathleen wrote: ↑01 Nov 2020, 23:55 The scientific aspects of it were surely too complex for me. Majority of it weren't discussed in my high school. I think I have a general grasp of it, though. I think the author was interested in going into the details of it because it's where it all stems. You can't get the bigger picture if you don't have the tiny details.

It is for this reason that I think the pleasure of reading this book is limited to a narrower audience. Narrow terminology and knowledge of physics can influence this.lavkathleen wrote: ↑01 Nov 2020, 23:55 The scientific aspects of it were surely too complex for me.

As you highlighted in the last portion of your comment, readers do not have to be subject matter experts to enjoy and understand a book. Proper dialogues and explanations should do the trick.
