Thanks for reminding me about this book. I'd read it many years ago (when I still knew maths) as an online PDF, which luckily I had still kept saved somewhere.
Could anyone on this list update me if a "Quantum Copernican Principle" *referred to in Chapter 7 (?) "Quantum mechanics and the Anthropic Principle" of the book is still somewhat accepted / discredited in the academic community. This is in the context of classical universes and Many Worlds Interpretation. PS: Its a wonderful book, takes heavy going, and has all the essentials of a book I'd like to read 10 years from now.
