This idea is considered a foundation of modern physics. but what if it is wrong? Theoretical physicist Magueijo presents the idea that light traveled faster in the early universe than it does today. The varying speed of light theory solves some of the most intractable problems in cosmology. and could have major implications for the study of physics.ISBN: 0738205257.
