I will make this short because there is no way I can summarize this book and do justice to Stephen Hawking’s work. This man is nothing short of a genius, and his work is all the more impressive and miraculous because of his battle with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease). I highly recommend this book to anyone with a slight background in Nuclear Chemistry and Physics. This book is a short read but absolutely brilliant in every way. Hawking doesn’t only discuss the Big Bang but other theories of creation throughout his work and he makes it presentable and comprehensible to young readers. If you have no interest in science, this book is not for you because the topics are primarily scientific with only brief discussions of philosophy. I think everyone entering any scientific field, from research to medicine should read this book. To me, Hawking is more brilliant than Albert Einstein and he is still alive. I feel almost blessed to have the honor of merely existing in the same time period as Hawking, and I deeply admire his work.
