What sparked the big bang? Renowned physicist Krauss takes readers on a mind-bending journey to the dawn of creation, unveiling how the cosmos arose from nothing. Grounding his revolutionary theory in the latest evidence, Krauss dismantles centuries-old philosophical notions to show how the universe's most elemental building blocks - from quantum fluctuations to dark energy - point to a startling conclusion: that something can indeed come from nothing. Prepare to have your understanding of existence rewritten.
