Skip the book (and the article), read the original paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/0704.0646.pdf

IMO, Tegmark has a solid argument that the MUH is more plausible than any of the other suggested possibilities (https://www.amazon.com/Why-Does-World-Exist-Existential/dp/0... is good for the PEQ and much more worth reading than Tegmark's book).
