"Behind the front-page reports of fascinating discoveries in physics, cosmology, and math, lurks a deep underlying mystery - an all-pervasive presence that eludes understanding, yet controls everything else that happens. That mysterious presence is Nothing. In a literary tour de force, K. C.
Cole plunges into the void with today's top scientists and theorists, showing how the continuing search for ultimate nothingness is leading to a profoundly new understanding of the origins and nature of the universe".
"The universe that emerges in this important book is juicy, rich, and deep. Every time scientists think they have reached the ultimate void, new stuff appears: a black hole, an undulating string, an additional dimension of space or time, repulsive antigravity, and universes that breed like bunnies."--BOOK JACKET.
