THE PHILOSOPHY OF COSMOLOGY
Following a long-term international collaboration between leaders in cosmology and the
philosophy of science, this volume addresses foundational questions at the limits of sci-
ence across these disciplines, questions raised by observational and theoretical progress
in modern cosmology. Space missions have mapped the Universe up to its early instants,
opening up questions on what came before the Big Bang, the nature of space and time, and
the quantum origin of the Universe.
As the foundational volume of an emerging academic discipline, experts from relevant
fields lay out the fundamental problems of contemporary cosmology and explore the routes
toward possible solutions. Written for physicists and philosophers, the emphasis is on con-
ceptual questions, and on ways of framing them that are accessible to each community and
to a still wider readership: those who wish to understand our modem vision of the Universe,
its unavoidable philosophical questions, and its ramifications for scientific methodology.
KHALIL CHAMCHAMisa researcher at the University of Oxford. He acted as the exec-
utive director of the UK collaboration on the ‘Philosophy of Cosmology’ programme. His
main research interests are in the chemical evolution of galaxies, nucleosynthesis, dark
matter, and the concept of time. He has co-authored four books and co-edited ten, includ-
ing From Quantum Fluctuations to Cosmological Structures and Science and Search for
Meaning.
JOSEPH SILK FRSis Homewood Professor at the Johns Hopkins University, Research
Scientist at the Institut d’Astrophysique de Paris, CNRS and Sorbonne Universities, and
Senior Fellow at the Beecroft Institute for Particle Astrophysics at the University of
Oxford. He has written seven popular books on cosmology, including The Big Bang, A
Short History of the Universe, and The Infinite Cosmos. His research areas include dark
matter, the formation of the galaxies, and the big bang theory. He has received numerous
awards and prestigious international fellowships.
JOHN D. BARROW FRS is Professor of Mathematical Sciences at the University of
Cambridge and Director of the Millennium Mathematics Project to improve the appre-
ciation of mathematics amongst the general public, teachers, and school students. The
recipient of many distinguished prizes, his research interests are in cosmology, gravita-
tion, and the interface between particle physics and astronomy. He is also a prolific author;
the most recent of his 22 books are 100 Essential Things You Didn t Know You Didn t
Know about Maths and the Am, and The Book of Universes.
SIMON SAUNDERS is Professor of Philosophy of Physics at the University of Oxford,
and a Tutorial Fellow of Merton College, Oxford. He is the lead editor of Many Worlds?
Everett, Quantum Theory, and Reality and the author of more than 60 articles in philosophy
of physics, with special emphasis on the foundations of quantum mechanics, quantum
field theory, and symmetries. He also works on structuralism in philosophy of science and
metaphysics, focusing on the logic of identity. He is president-elect of the British Society
for the Philosophy of Science.
