In 2008, Presses de la Renaissance [ fr ] published L'équation Bogdanov: le secret de l'origine de l'univers? (The Bogdanov Equation: The Secret of the Origin of the Universe?), officially written in English by Luboš Motl and translated into French. A review in Science et Vie found that the book was light on detail and never actually said what the "Bogdanov equation" is: " Et arrivé à la conclusion, on n'est même plus très certain qu'elle existe réellement " ("Arriving at the conclusion, one is no longer even very certain that it really exists").
