A fortunate universe :: life in a finely-tuned cosmos /
Over the last forty years, scientists have uncovered evidence that if the Universe had been forged with even slightly different properties, life as we know it - and life as we can imagine it - would be impossible.

| Zusammenfassung: | Over the last forty years, scientists have uncovered evidence that if the Universe had been forged with even slightly different properties, life as we know it - and life as we can imagine it - would be impossible. Join us on a journey through how we understand the Universe, from its most basic particles and forces, to planets, stars and galaxies, and back through cosmic history to the birth of the cosmos. Conflicting notions about our place in the Universe are defined, defended and critiqued from scientific, philosophical and religious viewpoints. The authors' engaging and witty style addresses what fine-tuning might mean for the future of physics and the search for the ultimate laws of nature. Tackling difficult questions and providing thought-provoking answers, this volumes challenges us to consider our place in the cosmos, regardless of our initial convictions. An engaging defence and critique of the various arguments from both science and religion on the fine-tuning of the Universe. |

Barnes, University of Sydney ; foreword by Brian Schmidt, Australian National University. Life in a finely tuned cosmos Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2016. ©2016 1 online resource (xvii, 373 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Over the last forty years, scientists have uncovered evidence that if the Universe had been forged with even slightly different properties, life as we know it - and life as we can imagine it - would be impossible. Join us on a journey through how we understand the Universe, from its most basic particles and forces, to planets, stars and galaxies, and back through cosmic history to the birth of the cosmos. Conflicting notions about our place in the Universe are defined, defended and critiqued from scientific, philosophical and religious viewpoints. The authors' engaging and witty style addresses what fine-tuning might mean for the future of physics and the search for the ultimate laws of nature. Tackling difficult questions and providing thought-provoking answers, this volumes challenges us to consider our place in the cosmos, regardless of our initial convictions. An engaging defence and critique of the various arguments from both science and religion on the fine-tuning of the Universe. Includes bibliographical references and index. A conversation on fine-tuning -- I'm only human! -- Can you feel the force? -- Energy and entropy -- The universe is expanding -- All bets are off! -- A dozen (or so) reactions to fine-tuning -- A conversation continued.
