Book Synopsis Cosmology and Controversy by : Helge Kragh
Book excerpt: Between 1920 and 1970, cosmology became a branch of physics. This text examines how the big bang theory drew inspiration from, and eventually triumphed over, rival views, mainly the steady-state theory and its concept of a stationary universe.
