Primordial Cosmology deals with one of the most puzzling and
fascinating topics debated in modern physics - the nature of the
Big Bang singularity. The authors provide a self-consistent and
complete treatment of the very early Universe dynamics, passing
through a concise discussion of the Standard Cosmological Model, a
precise characterization of the role played by the theory of
inflation, up to a detailed analysis of the anisotropic and
inhomogeneous cosmological models. The most peculiar feature of
this book is its uniqueness in treating advanced topics of quantum
cosmology with a well-traced link to more canonical and pedagogical
notions of fundamental cosmology.This book traces clearly the
backward temporal evolution of the Universe, starting with the
Robertson-Walker geometry and ending with the recent results of
loop quantum cosmology in view of the Big Bounce. The reader is
accompanied in this journey by an initial technical presentation
which, thanks to the fundamental tools given earlier in the book,
never seems heavy or obscure.
