Book introduction:
How does the Universe begin or is there a beginning? Was it big bang? Is there going to be a big crunch? How does human fit in? What is the meaning of time? Must it too has a beginning and will it end? Is black hole really black? What is the history of modern science? How do we get to know so much about the universe? What more to learn? How close are we to the final goal "a grand unification theory"?
My review:
A masterpiece by Stephen Hawking that covers all the above questions. I truly enjoyed reading this book and there is so much more to learn.
