No, @Simon Moon. I am not the one who put the book title "A Universe from Nothing: Why There Is Something Rather than Nothing".
It's clear what we mean by nothing when we ask the question of why there is something rather than nothing, we really mean nothing, no matter, no energy, no quantum vacuum state. Krauss didn't make any effort to clarify what he means by nothing in his title. He is therefore guilty of equivocating, or at the very least, he's using a misleading title.
Sean Carroll is an atheist physicist, he clearly asserts that physics has absolutely no saying on the question that Krauss pretends to have answered:
Quote: "Do advances in modern physics and cosmology help us address these underlying questions, of why there is something called the universe at all, and why there are things called 'the laws of physics' and why those laws seem to take the form of quantum mechanics, and why some particular wave function and Hamiltonian? In a word: no. I don't see how they could"
