Stephen Hawking is a famous British astrophysicist, author of the theory of the Big Bang and black holes. With hundreds of editions around the world, A Brief History of Time is a popular science exposition of the fundamental laws that govern the universe. The scientist asks questions that have been worrying mankind since ancient times: where did the Universe come from and what awaits it in the future? The interest in Hawking’s books is also due to the readers’ interest in his difficult fate: since 1962, he has been practically immobilized and can communicate with people only with the help of a computer speech synthesizer. Nevertheless, the disease did not break the scientist, he regularly lectures, gives interviews, and in 2009 he is going into space to draw the attention of earthlings to the need to explore other planets.
