John Gribbin's "Big Bang" is a good book on big bang
 
I'm currently reading The Inflationary Universe. It's completely excellent.
 
"The Big Bang" by Joseph Silk is geared for a popular audinece, it is proabably one of the most challenging books for a non-technical audince but it is also by far and away the most comphrehensive.
