New Scientist's book club chose Chanda Prescod-Weinstein's The Edge of Space-Time as its September read. In the club's verdict, the book offers a challenging trip to the edges of space-time, one that most members thoroughly enjoyed.
The review frames the book as an adventurous and demanding read, not a simple overview. The club's reaction suggests the book rewards readers who are willing to wrestle with difficult concepts about the universe.
Because this is a single review, there is no other critical take to compare it against. The verdict represents one group's collective response to a work that asks a lot of its readers but appears to give back in kind.
