**A DAILY TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEAR 2022** One of the world's most celebrated cosmologists presents her breakthrough explanation of our origins in the multiverse. In recent years, Laura Mersini-Houghton's ground-breaking theory, spectacularly vindicated with observational evidence, has turned the multiverse from philosophical speculation to one of the most compelling and credible explanations of our universe's origins. In Before the Big Bang, she interweaves the story of how she arrived at this theory with her journey from communist Albania, where she was born and brought up, to the West, showing how her unconventional path helped her to challenge orthodoxies and become one of the most courageous thinkers on the world stage of theoretical physics. 'Fascinating' Roger Penrose, Nobel laureate, and author of The Road to Reality 'There is no better guide to the bizarre, and sometimes paradoxical, cosmic super-realm than Laura Mersini-Houghton' Paul Davies, author of What's Eating the Universe? 'A fascinating and unusual hybrid of pop science and memoir' 5*, Stephen Poole, Daily Telegraph 'From one of the world's most renowned cosmologists . a fascinating read' Stephon Alexander, author of Fear of a Black Universe.

Here is a radical approach to the Holy Grail of physics, the “theory of everything,” and a new theory that the universe was formed from two particles.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A theoretical physicist returns by train from a conference, his eyes fixed on a paper on quantum cosmology. Suddenly, a little girl's voice interrupts his musings. 'What are you reading ' 'It's the story of the universe.' 'If it tells the whole story of the universe, does it say anything about me ' Starting from this question, this book explores our current understanding of the Big Bang, the primordial event that gave rise to the special mixture of space, time, and matter that we call the universe. It is a journey through cosmic history, pushing the limits of human knowledge, winding its way through general relativity, curved spaces, quantum mechanics and the multiverse. Giudice succeeds in uniting science and the history of thought, tracing the debate that animated the physics community, when faced with the hypothesis and then the confirmation of the Big Bang. This book recounts the great discoveries in cosmology and leads us to the frontiers of current scientific research. It is a fascinating and thought-provoking parable that addresses complex concepts with the fluidity of storytelling and allows us to better understand the universe around us.'A fascinating, enchanting narrative. A fairy tale that tells a true story spanning 13.8 billion years. Exciting from the first to the last page.'Fabiola Gianotti, CERN Director General'In this beautiful book, of exemplary clarity, Giudice guides us by the hand through the history and mysteries of the Big Bang.'Giorgio Parisi, 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics 201 pp. Englisch

The author of this book draws attention to ongoing and future observations that might reveal relics of an era before the big bang. In doing so, he provides an accessible introduction to the extraordinary new ideas of string cosmology.

Terms such as "expanding Universe", "big bang", and "initial singularity", are nowadays part of our common language. The idea that the Universe we observe today originated from an enormous explosion (big bang) is now well known and widely accepted, at all levels, in modern popular culture. But what happens to the Universe before the big bang? And would it make any sense at all to ask such a question? In fact, recent progress in theoretical physics, and in particular in String Theory, suggests answers to the above questions, providing us with mathematical tools able in principle to reconstruct the history of the Universe even for times before the big bang. In the emerging cosmological scenario the Universe, at the epoch of the big bang, instead of being a "new born baby" was actually a rather "aged" creature in the middle of its possibly infinitely enduring evolution. The aim of this book is to convey this picture in non-technical language accessibile also to non-specialists. The author, himself a leading cosmologist, draws attention to ongoing and future observations that might reveal relics of an era before the big bang.
