Just Six Numbers: The Deep Forces That Shape The Universe
How did billions of galaxies, black holes, stars, and planets emerge from a single "genesis event"? How did atoms combine into living creatures complex enough to question their beginnings here on Earth, and potentially on other worlds? What are the basic rules that govern our universe? This book details recent findings and provides fascinating insights into these fundamental problems. Between stars and atoms, between the cosmos and the microworld, there are profound links. The key aspects of our whole physical reality are determined by just six digits imprinted in the "big bang." Furthermore, the values of these numbers are surprisingly sensitive to cosmic development. There could be no stars and no life if any of them were "untuned." This insight changes everything about our world, our role within it, and the nature of physical laws.
