Nothing

"Nothing needs a rethink: all too easily, we ignore or dismiss the faxcinating possibilities of emptiness and non-existence. For centuries, scientist have known that nothing may in fact be the key to understanding everything, from the true nature of consciousness to the expansion of the cosmos. Because without nothing -- or rather, what we've long taken to be nothing -- we'd be literally nowhere. With contributions from more than twenty respected New Scientist writers, this book will fascinate and enlighten anyone interested in the cutting edge of science -- or simply in the greatest mysteries of our world."--Publisher.
