Continual Creation

Abstract

If I had been writing this chapter even a year or so earlier, I might well have begun it something like this:

‘The idea of a steady-state Universe in its simplest form now seems untenable, since observational evidence suggests that the Universe is evolving. But there remain applications of the idea of continual creation in local regions which could be of relevance to the real Universe and might provide a model universe which varies in form without having an origin in time.’
