According to a recent survey, the most popular question about science from the general public was: what came before the Big Bang? We all know on some level what the Big Bang is, but we don’t know how it became the accepted theory, or how we might know what came before. In Before the Big Bang, Brian Clegg explores the history of this remarkable concept.From the earliest creation myths, through Hershel’s realization that the Milky Way was one of many galaxies, to ongoing debates about Black Holes, this is an incredible look at the origins of the universe and the many theories that led to the acceptance of the Big Bang. But the idea of Big Bang doesn’t so much answer questions as raise new ones. Clegg challenges the notion of the Big Bang itself, and raises the deep philosophical question of why we might want to rethink the origin of the universe.
