The Embryonic Universe

The Embryonic Universe explores a picture of the universe so remarkable it surpasses the endeavours of science itself. Drawing on symmetries between the macro and micro worlds - between the atom and the Solar System - the book down-sizes the scale of the cosmos by comparing the telescope to the microscope and offers a relativistic view of the universe. A view where the very passage between birth and death is seen as a quantum transition between two dimensions. Between conception in the embryonic domain to birth here in the macro world of the Solar System.
