That’s how I felt throughout the entirety of “A Brief History Of Time.”
I was like “Gee Hawking, you really don’t care if I get any of this.” Lol
When I read it, I loved it. But I can totally see how listening to it would be super hard, just like Jordan Peterson’s work. It’s something you must pay attention to, if you want to enjoy it. Plenty of great books are like that.
But the latest JP book, was more than that - it was not only hard to listen to, I found myself bored a lot even when I paid attention. He would go around and around and around to get to his point. And I kept thinking of this quote “I would have written you a shorter letter if I had more time”. I wish he took more time.
Edit: here is a quote I liked
A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking
But according to the approach I described in Chapter 1, a scientific theory is just a mathematical model we make to describe our observations: it exists only in our minds. So it is meaningless to ask: which is real, “real” or “imaginary” time? It is simply a matter of which is the more useful description.
