About the author
Stephen Hawking's ability to make science understandable and compelling to a lay audience was established with the publication of his first book, A Brief History of Time, which has sold nearly 10 million copies in 40 languages. Hawking has authored or participated in the creation of numerous other popular science books, including The Universe in a Nutshell, A Briefer History of Time, On the Shoulders of Giants, The Illustrated On the Shoulders of Giants, and George's Secret Key to the Universe.
(Stephen William Hawking; Oxford, Reino Unido, 8 de Enero de 1942 - Cambridge, 14 de marzo de 2018) Físico teórico británico. A pesar de sus discapacidades físicas y de las progresivas limitaciones impuestas por la enfermedad degenerativa que padecía, Stephen William Hawking es probablemente el físico más conocido entre el gran público desde los tiempos de Einstein. Luchador y triunfador, a lo largo de toda su vida logró sortear la inmensidad de impedimentos que le planteó el mal de Lou Gehrig, una esclerosis lateral amiotrófica que le aquejaba desde que tenía 20 años. Hawking es, sin duda, un ejemplo particular de vitalidad y resistencia frente al infortunio del destino.
Fue miembro de la Real Sociedad de Londres, de la Academia Pontificia de las Ciencias y de la Academia Nacional de Ciencias de Estados Unidos. Fue titular de la Cátedra Lucasiana de Matemáticas (Lucasian Chair of Mathematics) de la Universidad de Cambridge desde 1979 hasta su jubilación en 2009. Entre las numerosas distinciones que le han sido concedidas, Hawking ha sido honrado con doce doctorados honoris causa y ha sido galardonado con la Orden del Imperio Británico (grado CBE) en 1982, el Premio Príncipe de Asturias de la Concordia en 1989, la Medalla Copley en 2006, la Medalla de la Libertad en 2009 y el Premio Fundación BBVA Fronteras del Conocimiento en 2015.
Alcanzó éxitos de ventas con sus trabajos divulgativos sobre Ciencia, en los que discute sobre sus propias teorías y la cosmología en general; estos incluyen A Brief History of Time, que estuvo en la lista de best-sellers del The Sunday Times británico durante 237 semanas.
La Editorial Alvi Books le dedicó, como tributo y reconocimiento, este espacio en Amazon en 2016.

While the book is a little difficult in some areas because to the complex subject matter, Hawking's eloquence and clarity show through, guaranteeing an enjoyable read. The book's worth greatly outweighs its price, providing a fascinating experience that digs into the mysteries of the universe. "The Theory of Everything" is an essential addition to the library of anybody interested in the secrets of the cosmos.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a more in-depth understanding of the world without sacrificing quality or depth.

I had read his book “A brief history of time” many years ago but I had not read this book which was published back in 2002. This volume has seven lectures Stephen Hawking made over the years. They include “Ideas about the universe, the expanding universe, black holes, black holes ain’t so black, the origin and fate of the universe, the direction of time and the theory of everything.”
I found this book to be very interesting and informative even though I have read his theories in other publication over the years. If you are curious about how this great scientist views some of the mysteries of the cosmos you should check out this book. Still a great read even though it was published more than twenty years ago.
Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: The Samurai Soul: An old warrior’s poetic tribute to warriors).
When I got the book it was brand new and still shrink-wrapped. Nevertheless the cover just fell of as soon as I opened the book for the very first time. Next thing is, that there are plenty of missprints, sometimes there is even glue and dirt between some pages.
Once I was done reading it, the book fell off completely and I decided to just dump it...
IMO that's unacceptable for a 20€ book!
