In The Universe, today's most influential science writers explain the science behind our evolving understanding of the universe and everything in it, including the cutting-edge research and discoveries that are shaping our knowledge.

• Lee Smolin reveals how math and cosmology are helping us create a theory of the whole universe.

• Neil Turok analyzes the fundamental laws of nature, what came before the big bang, and the possibility of a unified theory.

• Seth Lloyd investigates the impact of computational revolutions and the informational revolution.

• Lawrence Krauss provides fresh insight into gravity, dark matter, and the energy of empty space.

• Brian Greene and Walter Isaacson discuss Albert Einstein.

• And much more. Explore the universe with some of today's greatest minds: what it is, how it came into being, and what may happen next.
