Author: Martin Rees

Format: Hardback

Number of Pages: 240


This book centres on the fascinating consequences of the answer being "yes". Rees explores the notion that our universe is just part of a vast "multiverse", or ensemble of universes, in which most of the other universes are lifeless. What we call the laws of nature would then be local bylaws, imposed in the aftermath of our own Big Bang. In this scenario, our cosmic habitat would be a special, possibly unique universe where the prevailing laws of physics allowed life to emerge.
