One of the first books to address what has come to be known as the philosophy of cosmology, Universes asks, "Why does the universe exist?," arguing that the universe is "fine tuned for producing life." For example, if the universe's early expansion speed had been smaller by one part in a million, then it would have recollapsed rapidly; with an equivalently tiny speed increase, no galaxies would have formed. Either way, this universe would have been lifeless.Leslie, John is the author of 'Universes', published 1990 under ISBN 9780415041447 and ISBN 0415041449.
