Have you read this book (2nd edition), and if so, what do you think of its approach to cosmology? Personally, it is one of my all-time favorite physics books - joyfully understandable, beautifully imaginative and lastingly philosophical.

I encourage you to read the first chapter, which explores our assumptions about what a Universe (or universe) is.
