The scenario that the Universe contracts towards a big crunch and then undergoes a transition to expanding Universe in envisaged in the quantum string cosmology approach. The Wheeler-De Witt equation is solved exactly for an exponential dilaton potential. S-duality invariant cosmological effective action, for type IIB theory, is considered to derive classical solutions and solve WDW equations.
