A Brief History of Time (Broché)

In Stephen Hawking's landmark #1 New York Times bestseller - now updated with a new introduction and six short essays on the current science - one of today's greatest scientific minds explores such profound questions as : How did the universe begin - and what made its start possible ? Does time always flow forward ? Is the universe unending - or are there boundaries ? Are there other dimensions in space ? What will happen when it all ends ? Told in language we all can understand, A Brief History of Time plunges into the exotic realms of black holes and quarks, of antimatter and "arrows of time", of the big bang and a bigger God - where the possibilities are wondrous and unexpected.

With exciting images and profound imagination, Stephen Hawking brings us closer to the ultimate secrets at the very heart of creation.
