A Big Bang in a Little Room takes the reader on a journey through the history of cosmology and unravelsparticle by particle, theory by theory, and experiment by experimentthe ideas behind this provocative claim made by some of the most respected physicists alive today. Beyond simply explaining the science, A Big Bang in a Little Room also tells the story of the people who have been laboring for more than thirty years to make this seemingly impossible dream a reality. What has driven them to continue on what would seem, at first glance, to be a quixotic quest?
