    About this audiobook

    Written by experts and offering readers the opportunity to pass off appropriated knowledge as their own, the Bluffer's Guides provide hard fact masquerading as frivolous observation in one witty, easy listen.

    Instantly acquire all the knowledge you need to pass as an expert in the world of quantum physics. Never again confuse a boson with a hadron, a fermion with a meson, or a photon with a lepton or an electron. If in doubt, always fall back on a bluffon.

    “The Bluffer s Guides present the means to apparent instant erudition without actually having to know or study anything.” DAILY MAIL

      Is Passive Investing 'Worse Than Marxism'?

      Apr 11, 2018

      Passive investing is taking over the world. Okay, that's an exaggeration, but investment researchers at Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. say that nearly half of equity assets in the United States are passively managed, and the trend is growing. These same

      Is the Universe Open-Ended?

      One of my favorite albeit heavily paraphrased quotes from Albert Einstein is his assertion that the most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible. (What he actually said, in his 1936 work “Physics and Reality,” is more l

      Is Physical Law an Alien Intelligence?: Alien life could be so advanced it becomes indistinguishable from physics.

      Perhaps Arthur C. Clarke was being uncharacteristically unambitious. He once pointed out that any sufficiently advanced technology is going to be indistinguishable from magic. If you dropped in on a bunch of Paleolithic farmers with your iPhone and a

      From The Editor

      Jun 30, 2021

      Why is there something, rather than nothing? Why does anything exist at all? Every culture has its own creation stories, but until recently, it’s not something physicists had a satisfying answer for. Our best answer to that question, in scientific te

      It’s time we thought again about quantum theory. There’s nothing actually wrong with the theory itself—it works fantastically well for understanding how atoms and subatomic particles behave. The problem is how we talk about quantum theory. We keep in
