What is the nature of the material world? How does it work? What is
the universe and how was it formed? What is life? Where do we come
from and how did we evolve? How and why do we think? What does it
mean to be human? How do we know? There are many different versions
of our creation story. This book tells the version according to
modern science. It is a unique account, starting at the Big Bang
and travelling right up to the emergence of humans as conscious
intelligent beings, 13.8 billion years later. Chapter by chapter,
it sets out the current state of scientific knowledge: the origins
of space and time; energy, mass, and light; galaxies, stars, and
our sun; the habitable earth, and complex life itself. Drawing
together the physical and biological sciences, Baggott recounts
what we currently know of our history, highlighting the questions
science has yet to answer.
