| 520 | _aThe metaphysical mystery of how we came into existence remains the most fractious and fascinating questions of all time. Jim Holt examines our latest efforts to grasp the origins of the universe, contending that we have been too narrow in limiting our suspects to God versus the Big Bang. The result is Why Does the World Exist? - a work that becomes philosophy in its own right. | ||
