A Universe from Nothing
Why There Is Something Rather Than Nothing
Where did the universe come from? What was there before it? What will the future bring? And finally, why is there something rather than nothing? Theoretical physicist Lawrence Krauss’ answers to these and other timeless questions in a wildly popular lecture on YouTube have attracted almost a million viewers. The last of these questions in particular has been at the center of religious and philosophical debates for ages. In this enlightening cosmological story, Krauss explains groundbreaking scientific advances that turn the most basic philosophical questions on their head. One of the few prominent scientists to have actively crossed the chasm between science and popular culture, Krauss reveals that modern science is indeed addressing the question of why there is something rather than nothing—with surprising and fascinating results.
