%X i present a brief summary of the origins, applications and criticisms of the anthropic principle. i start with robert dicke's first arguments in favor of anthropic reasoning, continue through the formulations of brandon carter and the extrapolations of john barrow and frank tipler. in the end i analyse some of the most important consequences of the anthropic principle in cosmology and quantum mechanics. there is also a section dedicated to possible refutations of the anthropic principle.
