Recenzje

'… a light but advanced reading addressing the discrepancies in the standard Lambda cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmological paradigm that supports dark matter (duh, obviously) and compares it to an alternative outlook … Thus, although it is of general interest, it gears towards those with some background in cosmology and astrophysics.' B. Ishak, Contemporary Physics
