Description
The autobiography of the most famous living scientist in the world.
The feeling of having a completely functioning mind inside a body that restricts and confines you is terrifying.
Stephen Hawking's autobiography is invaluable. It is a unique work, filled with unknown stories and unpublished photographs, enriched with doses of authentic science and fiery humor. It is like reading the farewell letter of a scientist who appears to humanity once every hundred years - a man who defied his fate, ignored death, accepted his nature, and proved that, even paralyzed, you can think, fall in love, create, and do things.
"It was a brilliant period. I was alive and doing research in theoretical physics. I wanted to know why the universe exists - why there is something greater than nothing. I am happy if I managed to add something to our understanding of the World."
Stephen Hawking
A computer placed under Hawking's wheelchair translates every twitch on his cheek into words. As a result, the author managed, at a painfully slow pace, to compose a concise 21,000-word text in which he analyzes his groundbreaking work in quantum cosmology, black holes in space, and the theory of everything.
At the same time, he reveals his personal life, from his childhood in post-war London to his diagnosis with motor neuron disease at the age of 21 and his successive, fortunately fruitless encounters with death, to his two marriages, the controversial circumstances that led to their dissolution, the insurmountable difficulties of physical paralysis, the steely will to live, and his rise to fame.
