He is the author of more than 300 scientific publications and nine books--including the bestselling The Physics of Star Trek--and the recipient of numerous international awards for his research and writing.

Review Quotes: "In A Universe from Nothing, Lawrence Krauss has written a thrilling introduction to the current state of cosmology-the branch of science that tells us about the deep past and deeper future of everything. As it turns out, everything has a lot to do with nothing-and nothing to do with God. This is a brilliant and disarming book."-- Sam Harris, author of The Moral Landscape
