504 0 0 |a In Endless Universe, the authors present a bold new cosmology. They recount the remarkable developments in astronomy, particle physics, and superstring theory that form the basic for their groundbreaking "Cyclic Universe" theory. According to this theory, the Big Bang was not the beginning of time but the bridge to a past filled with endless repeating cycles of evolution, each accompanies by the creation of new matter and the formation of new galaxies, stars and planets. This book provides answer to long- standing problems with the Big Bang model, while offering a provocative new view of both the past and the future of the cosmos.
