About this audiobook
The Big Bang is the scientific account of how the universe began—but what does that actually mean? Not an explosion in space, but the expansion of space itself. This volume explains the theory clearly: what evidence supports it, what it says happened in the first moments, and what questions remain open. The story of everything, made comprehensible.
