In the nineteen sixties, critical experimental and theoretical discoveries led
to a rapid development of our understanding both of the microscopic content of
the Universe and of its macroscopic history. Exploring the past we can now
essentially reconstruct the Universe roughly up to a hundredth of a billionth
of a second after its birth; and our knowledge of the period before this
epoch is limited and conjectural. I will explain the physics underlying this
reconstruction of the Universe.
