Summary

First published in 1997 by Orion. Using Darwin's and Einstein's ideas the author suggests that the laws of nature are not fixed, but that they evolve in the same way that living things evolve. Smolin puts forward the possible unification of biology and physics to provide a view of the cosmos beyond both the notion of God and the existentialists.

The Life of the Cosmos by Lee Smolin

In this text, the author presents his new theory that inside every black hole is a universe, probably very similar to our own, but where the laws of physics are slightly different. Our universe, therefore, has to be seen as just one part of a vast array of universes in a self-reproducing system.
