A Universe from Nothing

Why There is Something Rather than Nothing
Book • 2012
In 'A Universe from Nothing,' Lawrence Krauss delves into the fundamental questions of cosmology, such as the origin of the universe, the concept of 'nothing' in physics, and the role of quantum fluctuations.

The book explains how recent scientific discoveries, including the Higgs particle and dark energy, support the idea that the universe could have emerged from a vacuum fluctuation.

Krauss uses clear explanations, historical anecdotes, and simple diagrams to make complex scientific concepts accessible to a broad audience.

He argues that the origin of the universe is a question for science rather than theology or philosophy, and presents a compelling case for how our universe evolved and what its future might hold.
