'ALBERT EINSTEIN HIS HUMAN SIDE'

Book Cover

"Cosmic expansion may be simply a temporary condition which will be followed at  some  future epoch of cosmic time by a period of contraction. The universe in this picture is a pulsating balloon in which cycles of  expansion  and  contraction succeed each other through eternity." -- Einstein
