Modern Cosmology & Philosophy
John Leslie (ed.)
Prometheus Books (1998)
Abstract
Did the universe originate from a "big bang" as argued by leading astrophysicists and others? Or does some other theory more accurately describe its beginnings? Are there other forms of life in the universe? What about other universes? This volume discusses these and other topics in this hotly debated area where philosophy and science meet.Other Versions
