I found the story portion of the book (Part 1) much more engaging than Part 2. As is often the case, I think the value lies in seeing his personal journey and how he worked through things.

Part 2 was interesting for seeing where he landed at the time of publishing. Those ideas weren't new (or shocking) to me, but I felt they were starting to bleed into the realm of faith. Personally, I don't think you can explain and have an answer for everything, but that really doesn't bother me. I'm probably lower on some theoretical level of unknowability discomfort. I actually think this is just what you get when a science nerd is an Enneagram 9.

Getting to the foundation of things is super important, and it was interesting to see his process/axioms, which I could see being incredibly helpful for people who relate to his journey.
