Cosmology and Controversy: The Historical Development of Two Theories of the Universe
Helge Kragh
Presents the development of scientific cosmology as a historical event, one that embroiled many scientists in a controversy over the very notion of an evolving universe with a beginning in time. This work examines how the big-bang theory drew inspiration from and eventually triumphed over rival views.
