This is a book of who I am, of what I believe is important, and the possibilities of Common Sense, Science and its Physics to change the world for the better.
It will soon be available at www.amazon.com http://www.iuniverse.com and www.bn.com and so on. Most online bookstores in late 1/2014. Do not buy the first treatise version. Buy only if it says, “Second Edition“. Search the online websites by entering in my name “Russ Otter” or the book title “Swimming in Cosmic Soup” to find it on these online websites. The hardcover edition is a great coffee table or bookshelf copy of the book, but the E-book or softcopy carry the same vision… Cheers and Thanks to all who review this book.
Here is a brief of its contents as reviewed by the distribution company www.iUniverse.com
“Our cosmic soup is in an endless churn, changing the circumstances of events
from moment to moment. Russ Otter swims in this cosmic soup every waking
moment, to discover, learn, fail, and grow. In this, the second edition of his
Swimming in Cosmic Soup from his lifelong quest for understanding, truth, and peace.
This study provides a review of the scientific knowledge we have of our
universe, presented in easy-to-understand terms, and a suggestion of what
this might mean to us. It takes a look at religion from a new perspective,
one in which all sentient people can enjoy a loving, religious life whose
teachings are removed from human extrapolations, rituals, suppositions, and
institutions. It also offers a pragmatic view of theocratic histories—and the
fallout we are living with today as a result.
Otter presents an examination—using responsibility, freedom, and ethics—
of the politically correct culture that leaves no stone unturned for the
mischief this is brought down upon society, along with a look at the nature
of politics and the direction of his own politics, coupled with the ultimate
force and value of humanity, humility and humor.
In this study, Otter presents an engaging ride through philosophy, history,
and science as he questions assumptions and the great unknowns of mystery,
discovery, and hope.”
I have humbly just read in 2025, the first and only review from an anonymous thoughtful and candid person, for whom I give high regards for stating their perceptions – so very well.
I Thank You for your following Review:
Swimming in Cosmic Soup: Philosophical and Physics Musings on Life in the Twenty-First Century

The beauty of Print exposing the beauty of Life… It’s enigma of our ups and our downs, the enigma of a beginning and an end
Verified Purchase February 11, 2014
“Life is an enigma. Life is a series of ups and downs. Life is not a perfection of endless forever’s. It is what it must be – a life and a death. An Alpha and an Omega. To be otherwise would circumscribe us to a virtual prison – forever… Russ’s book shares those concepts, and the concepts of truth forever bound to each of us. I loved this book. While it has its confusions it also has its clarities. That is life… As Russ said: “The moment is all that matters”, and our legacies are the results of those moments. So, make them one’s of “Goodness”. That is all we have in the end. That is who we are. I love us all and wish the world and people better understood those principles of our time here. “All the best to us in our journeys.” May we all care and do our best… Forever and a Day!”
