The classic big bang theory is great at describing what happened after the bang. Yet until recently, particle physicists and cosmologists were stuck on many questions that the big bang theory couldn't answer, including: What made the big bang BANG in the first place? If matter c…

This accessible volume provides a modern treatment of the cosmological and string-theoretic background necessary to understand inflation in string theory.
