“Many people today contemplate the vastness of the universe and conclude how insignificant we are. But for the first time in the history of humanity, science is giving us the chance to see our place in the Universe by unveiling the true story of its origin and evolution, and we’re much more significant than you may ever have imagined. Thanks to the most powerful telescopes ever invented we can now see all the way out to the horizon of the visible universe, which is also the beginning of time.
Many people think we’re insignificant specs in the universe – but it turns out that intelligent creatures are central to the principles that underlie the cosmos. We have evolved at the midpoint in the existence of our planet, which formed with our sun about 4.5 billion years ago and has at least as much time still to go.
We humans are faced with global problems that threaten us in the short term, but once past them we and our descendants could live comfortably on Earth for millions of generations. This book contains the ingredients to change the way we look at the world today by using the principles of science without abandoning our spirituality. Absolutely life changing.”
