Why is there something, rather than nothing? This simple yet confounding question resonates with almost every curious person. In this thoughtful and provocative book, Stephen A. Simon surveys five answers that have been offered to this question from a variety of perspectives: science, religion, philosophy, and even mathematics. Framed by a careful explication of the history and meaning of its central question as well as a critical discussion of its legitimacy and significance, this book offers an exciting entry point to this topic for students and general readers alike.
