About the book

Stephen hawking is the world-famous physicist with a cameo in "the simpsons on his cv", but outside his academic field his work is little understood. To the public he is a tragic figure - a brilliant scientist and author of the 9 million-copy-selling "a brief history of time", and yet confined to a wheelchair and almost completely paralysed. Hawking's major contribution to science has been to integrate the two great theories of 20th-century physics - einstein's general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. J.p. Mcevoy and oscar zarate's brilliant graphic guide explores hawking's life, the evolution of his work from his days as a student, and his breathtaking discoveries about where these fundamental laws break down or overlap, such as on the edge of a black hole or at the origin of the universe itself.
