Review

"Master of the Universe... One scientist's courageous voyage to the frontiers of the Cosmos" (Newsweek)

"He can explain the complexities of cosmological physics with an engaging combination of clarity and wit... His is a brain of extraordinary power" (Observer)

"One of the most brilliant scientific minds since Einstein" (Daily Express)

"To follow such a fine mind as it exposes such great problems is an exciting experience" (Sunday Times)

"The most brilliant British scientist of his generation" (New Statesman)

“It is said that fact is sometimes stranger than fiction, and nowhere is that more true than in the case of black holes. Black holes are stranger than anything dreamed up by science fiction writers.”

In 2016 Professor Stephen Hawking delivered the BBC Reith Lectures on a subject that fascinated him for decades – black holes.

In these flagship lectures the legendary physicist argued that if we could only understand black holes and how they challenge the very nature of space and time, we could unlock the secrets of the universe.

史蒂芬·霍金（1942年1月8日—2018年3月14日），ALS患者，英国物理学家和宇宙学家。肌肉萎缩性侧索硬化症患者，全身瘫痪，不能发音。霍金的主要研究领域是宇宙论和黑洞，证明了广义相对论的奇性定理和黑洞面积定理，提出了黑洞蒸发现象和无边界的霍金宇宙模型，在统一20世纪物理学的两大基础理论——爱因斯坦创立的相对论和普朗克创立的量子力学方面走出了重要一步。

霍金是继牛顿和爱因斯坦之后杰出的物理学家之一，被世人誉为“宇宙之王”。2017年4月，霍金接访采访表示，他比以前更加坚定地认为人类应该在2117年之前离开地球。 2018年3月14日，史蒂芬·霍金去世，享年76岁。 Stephen Hawkingwas a brilliant theoretical physicist and is generally considered to have been one of the world's greatest thinkers. He held the position of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge for thirty years and is the author of A Brief History of Time which was an international bestseller. His other books for the general reader include A Briefer History of Time, the essay collection Black Holes and Baby Universe, The Universe in a Nutshell, The Grand Design, and Black Holes: The BBC Reith Lectures. He died on 14 March, 2018.
