The Inflationary Universe by Alan Guth
This is a first-hand account of Alan Guth's theory of the origins of the universe. Regarded as one of the most important contributions to 20th-century science, it states that the big bang was set into motion by hyper-rapid inflation, lasting only a billion-trillion-billionth of a second.

In addition to being elected to the National Academy of Sciences and receiving many other academic awards, Newsweek has called him one of The Top 25 American Innovators," and Science Digest has ranked him among the 100 Brightest Scientists Under 40."
