Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking, the world-famous cosmologist and bestselling author of A Brief History of Time (2694), leaves us with his final thoughts on the universe's biggest questions in this brilliant posthumous work. As we face potentially catastrophic changes here on Earth, this is his personal view on the challenges we face as a human race, and where we, as a planet, are heading next.

Was there a beginning of time? Could time run backwards? Is the universe infinite or does it have boundaries? These are just some of the questions considered in this internationally acclaimed masterpiece by one of the world's greatest thinkers.

This book seeks to answer the age-old questions about the universe and the nature of reality with some of the latest theories on the subject. It explains model-dependent realism (the idea that there is no one version of reality) and the multiverse concept of reality in which there are many universes.
