His books are not good overall? Not much substance? Well, based on relevant ratings on Amazon, the absolute majority of Michio's readers strongly disagree with you. Your mention of Feynman etc. is ridiculous, considering that you have previously talked about comparison with "the average schmuck". Why are you suddenly changing the topic of the conversation?
- tehWeeb 6y agoThe majority of his reviews are “average schmucks”. Would they know if he’s wrong?
- ablekh 6y agoThat's exactly my point. The OP's question was not about whether he's right or wrong. It was: "why do we care what he thinks ... anymore than what the average schmuck thinks?". The stellar review performance proves that, for the reasons I outlined above, we, average schmucks, do care what he thinks.
