Cosmogony : stories / by Ives, Lucy,1980-author.(CARDINAL)345356;
"Cosmogony takes accounts of so-called normal life and mines them for inconsistencies, cruelties, deceptions, and delights. Incorporating a virtuosic range of styles and genres (Wikipedia entry, phone call, math equation, encounters with the supernatural, philosophies of time travel), these stories reveal how the narratives we tell ourselves and believe are inevitably constructed, offering a glimpse of the structures that underlie and apparently determine human existence - and which we ignore at our own peril."--publisher.A throw of the dice -- Cosmogony -- Recognition of this world is not the invention of it -- Scary sites -- The Care Bears find and kill God -- Bitter tennis -- Louise Nevelson -- Trust -- The poisoners -- Guy -- The volunteer -- Ersatz panda.

Battle of the Big Bang : the new tales of our cosmic origins / by Afshordi, Niyayesh,1978-author.; Halper, Phil,author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 337-356) and index.Preface : before our first memory -- The beginning : cosmology from Thales to Hawking -- The multiverse and the ultimate free lunch -- Hawking's U-Turn and a universe from nothing -- String theories and colliding branes -- The big bounce -- Déjà vu andthe cyclic cosmos -- Born from a Black Hole -- Speeds of light -- Holograms and missing dimensions -- Can the universe create itself? Science of religion, religion of science -- The end of the beginning.A thrilling exploration of competing cosmological origin stories, comparing new scientific ideas that upend our very notions of space, time, and reality. By most popular accounts, the universe started with a bang some 13.8 billion years ago. But what happened before the Big Bang? Here prominent cosmologist Niayesh Afshordi and science communicator Phil Halper offer a tour of the peculiar possibilities: bouncing and cyclic universes, time loops, creations from nothing, multiverses, black hole births, string theories, and holograms. Along the way, they offer both a call for new physics and a riveting story of scientific debate. Incorporating Afshordi's cutting-edge research and insights from Halper's original interviews with scientists like Stephen Hawking, Roger Penrose, and Alan Guth, Battle of the Big Bang compares these models for the origin of our origins, showing each theory's strengths and weaknesses and explaining new attempts to test these theories. Battle of the Big Bang is a tale of rivalries and intrigue, of clashes of ideas that have raged from Greek antiquity to the present day over whether the universe is eternal or had a beginning, whether it is unique or one of many. But most of all, Afshordi and Halper show that this search is filled withwonder, discovery, and community--all essential for remembering a forgotten cosmic past.
