Description
What came before the Big Bang, and what exists outside of the universe it created? Until recently, scientists could only guess at what lay past the edge of pace-time. However, as pioneering theoretical physicist Laura Mersini-Houghton explains, new scientific tools are now giving us the ability to peer beyond the limits of our universe. And Mersini-Houghton herself is no stranger to seeing beyond boundaries and pushing through them. As a child growing up in Communist Albania, she transcended her walled-off world through the study of math, science, and music. As a female cosmologist in a male-dominated field, she transcended the limits that society and our universe by revealing that, far from living in a cosmic Albania, with a world that ends at its borders, we are part of a larger family of universes--a multiverse--that holds wonders we are only beginning to unlock.
The incredible scientific saga of one woman's mind-expanding journey through the multiverse, Before the Big Bang reshapes our understanding of humanity's place in the unfathomable vastness of the cosmos.
