Given the prevailing consensus among cosmologists that the universe had its beginning approximately 15 billion years ago, and that it will reach its end in the remote yet foreseeable future, we face the momentous intellectual challenge of how to assimilate these scientific claims into our fundamental world view. In this work the distinguished philosopher Milton Munitz provides a lucid account of the chief empirical findings and theories of recent cosmology and a systematic assessment of their broader philosophical implications.

Milton K. Munitz is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy Emeritus at the City University of New York. Among his numerous works on the philosophical ramifications of cosmology is The Question of Reality (Princeton).
