At The Edge of Time
by Dan Hooper
At The Edge of Time by astrophysicist Dan Hooper is a popular science book that explains, in lay person’s terms, not only what we know out about the universe to date, but also what we don’t know about it. “Right now, there’s a culmination of mysteries in cosmology that need to be told as a coherent story,” he says in his Five Books interview on the Big Bang. “Maybe we’re in the 1904 of cosmology right now, and we’re going to tear down everything we think we know to the ground and build something entirely new.”
