Synopsis
Hawking reviews the great theories of the cosmos and all the puzzles, paradoxes, and contradictions still unresolved. He explains Galileo's and Newton's discoveries and takes the reader through Einstein's general theory of relativity and on to quantum mechanics. Finally, he explores the worldwide effort to combine the two into a single quantum theory of gravity, the unified theory, which should resolve all the mysteries left unsolved.

Industry Reviews
"Stephen Hawking has overcome a crippling disease to become the supernova of world physics. Unable to write or even speak clearly, he is leaping beyond relativity, beyond quantum mechanics, beyond the big bang, to the 'dance of geometry' that created the universe."
Vanity Fair - Timothy Ferris
