The Grand Design by Leonard Mlodinow
When and how did the universe begin? Why are we here? What is the nature of reality? Is the apparent 'grand design' of our universe evidence for a benevolent creator who set things in motion? Or does science offer another explanation? This title presents the scientific thinking about the mysteries of the universe.
