Stephen Hawking's worldwide bestseller remains a landmark volume in scientific writing. But for readers who have asked for a more accessible formulation of its key concepts - the nature of space and time, the role of God in creation, and the history and future of the universe - is Professor Hawking's response. Although "briefer," this book is much more than a mere explanation of Hawking's earlier work. both clarifies and expands on the great subjects of the original, and records the latest developments in the field - from string theory to the search for a unified theory of all the forces of physics. Thirty-seven full-color illustrations enhance the text and make an exhilarating and must-have addition in its own right to the great literature of science and ideas.
