<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Marking the tenth anniversary of a worldwide science classic, this fully updated edition is enriched with a new Introduction by Professor Hawking and an entirely new chapter on wormholes and time travel.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>#1 <i>NEW YORK TIMES</i> BESTSELLER <p/>A landmark volume in science writing by one of the great minds of our time, Stephen Hawking's book explores such profound questions as: How did the universe begin--and what made its start possible? Does time always flow forward? Is the universe unending--or are there boundaries? Are there other dimensions in space? What will happen when it all ends? <p/>Told in language we all can understand, <i>A Brief History of Time</i> plunges into the exotic realms of black holes and quarks, of antimatter and "arrows of time," of the big bang and a bigger God--where the possibilities are wondrous and unexpected. With exciting images and profound imagination, Stephen Hawking brings us closer to the ultimate secrets at the very heart of creation.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"[Hawking] can explain the complexities of cosmological physics with an engaging combination of clarity and wit. . . .
