Much of this is based on cosmologist George F. R. Ellis' brilliant little book, BEFORE THE BEGINNING: COSMOLOGY EXPLAINED, which I highly recommend. (Do not get it confused with Martin Rees' BEFORE THE BEGINNING. Ellis' was first.) I think you can tell I read a lot of books. This slim 150-page book sums up and explains….
Well, almost everything.
Cannot recommend enough. I am about to steal shamelessly from it, with a little extra added. I never claimed most of my ideas were original. Indeed, varients of them have been circulating for decades, although for some reason they've never been penatraed into the mainstream general consciousness. I'm just one of the first to present them in illustrated, comic form. Ellis is a wonderfully clear thinker, and has co-written with Hawking, as well as contributing numerous articles to SCIENCE and other scientific journals. I respect a lot of thinkers. I cannot think of one I respect more.
