I haven't read the book yet so I don't know if there's something new in it, but going by the kinds of things Hawking and Mlodinow have written in the past, the constants are also a result of a kind of evolution.. or rather that we're here to observe the constants is because the constants allow us to be here, while other universes have different constants and those that do not allow for life won't have life in them to observe. Multiverses essentially.
