Description - Just Six Numbers by Martin Rees

How did a single genesis event create billions of galaxies, black holes, stars and planets How did atoms assemble -- here on Earth, and perhaps on other worlds -- into living beings intricate enough to ponder their origins This book describes the recent avalanche of discoveries about the universe s fundamental laws, and the deep connections that exist between stars and atoms -- the cosmos and the microscopic world. Just six numbers, imprinted in the big bang , determine the essence of our world, and this book devotes one chapter to explaining each.
