About this listen

A lively, accessible look at the Big Bang theory

This compelling book describes how the Big Bang theory arose, how it has evolved, and why it is the best theory so far to explain the current state of the universe. In addition to understanding the birth of the cosmos, listeners will learn how the theory stands up to challenges and what it fails to explain.

Karen Fox provides clear answers to some of the hardest questions including: Why was the Big Bang theory accepted to begin with? Will the Big Bang theory last into the next century or even the next decade? Is the theory at odds with new scientific findings?

One of the most well-known theories in modern science, the Big Bang is the most accurate model yet devised in humanity's tireless search for the ultimate moment of creation. The Big Bang Theory is the first title in a planned series on the major theories of modern science.

I nearly did not listen to this audiobook because the book cover looked very cartoonish and light-hearted; how wrong was I !
The book's main purpose is not to go with all the ideas assumed to be the answer to how the universe began and is evolving.
Having an open mind and considering new information is the way to go.
Very impressed with the authors knowledge and ease of portraying that information to the listener.
