Here $f(R)$-cosmology is discussed using a different approach. This model explains early-inflation, emergence of cosmic background radiation at the exit from inflation, cosmic deceleration during radiation-dominance followed by deceleration due to curvature-induced matter and acceleration in the very late universe due to curvature-induced phantom dark energy. This model predicts collapse in the future universe. Further, a possible avoidence of collapse as well as revival of very early universe is suggested.
