Letter: Multiple trade-offs

Published 22 October 2014

From Paul Turnbull

Rowan Hooper’s interesting feature on the multiverse (27 September, p 32) has left me confused and distressed. If I believe in the multiverse, every time something annoying happens to me such as missing a train or stubbing my toe, am I to blame the luckier version of me in another universe?

Also being a good, caring and honest person, should I instead be more selfish, rude and deceitful to give the wives of my multiverse selves a break?
