Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This is the first serious challenge to the widely accepted 'Big Bang' model of the universe. According to 'Big Bang' theory, space and time sprang into existence fifteen billion years ago: a super-heated fireball of near infinite density that expanded at phenomenal speed. As it continued to expand, it cooled and condensed to create the galaxies, stars and planets we see today. But the theory has always had flaws and they have become increasingly difficult to reconcile. Why is the distribution of matter and radiation in the universe so uniform? Why is space flat rather than curved, as Einstein's theory of general relativity suggests? And where did the seeds for forming galaxies come from? To resolve these issues, Turok and Steinhardt propose a very different model of the universe. They argue that it is without beginning or end, truly an Endless Universe. There is a continual cycle of expansion and contraction as parallel universes (or 'branes') collide. In this highly accessible book, they chronicle that last thirty years of cosmology as scientists tried to make the 'Big Bang' theory account for recent discoveries in cosmology. They explain the discovery of 'dark energy', 'dark matter' and the evolution of their new model of our universe. Finally, they address the question of when the next collision might occur between our worlds and the parallel dimensions in space. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

First Edition
1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPS OF STEINHARDT & TUROK'S EXPLANATION OF HOW THEIR 2002 CYCLIC THEORY OF THE UNIVERSE CAN RESOLVE THE COSMOLOGICAL CONSTANT PROBLEM. Steinhardt and Turok's 2002 cyclic universe theory is a model of cosmic evolution according to which the universe undergoes endless cycles of expansion and cooling, each beginning with a "big bang" and ending in a "big crunch" (Steinhardt, Cyclic Universe Theory, 2009). In the paper offered here, the 2006 paper, the two show "how the cyclic model could naturally incorporate a mechanism for relaxing the cosmological constant to very small values, consistent with current observations" (WP). We separately offer a second copy of both the 2002 paper and the 2002 paper together with the 2006. The model has also been known as the ekpyrotic cyclic universe theory. Paul Joseph Steinhart is an American theoretical physicist and cosmologist, currently the Albert Einstein Professor in Science at Princeton University. Beginning in 2001 and working with the South African physicist Neil Geoffrey Turok, Steinhardt and Turok put forth the ekpyrotic theory which, in essence, envisions a big bounce rather than a big bang. "According to this model, the current expanding universe emerges from a bounce that occurred 13.7 billion years ago and that is a result of the preceding (contracting) universe. The smoothing and flattening of the universe and the generation of density variations occur during the phase of slow contraction before the bounce and remain after the bounce" (Wikipedia). In their own words: "The Cyclic Model attempts to resolve the homogeneity, isotropy, and flatness problems and generate a nearly scale-invariant spectrum of fluctuations during a period of slow contraction that precedes a bounce to an expanding phase. Here we describe at a conceptual level the recent developments that have greatly simplified our understanding of the contraction phase and the Cyclic Model overall (Steinhardt & Turok, 24 May 2002).
