“Stephen Hawking is one of
the most remarkable figures of our age--bestselling author of "A Brief
History of Time," celebrated theoretical physicist, and an inspiration as
he exhibits grace, dignity, and courage while coping with devastating
disability. With race access to Hawking, including childhood photos and in-depth
research, award-winning author Kitty Ferguson has created a rich and
comprehensive picture of Hawking's life: his childhood; the heartbreaking ALS
diagnosis when he was a first-year graduate student; his long personal battle
for survival in pursuit of a scientific understanding of the universe; and his
rise to international fame. Ferguson
uses her gift for translating the language of theoretical physics into the
language of the rest of us to make Hawking's scientific work accessible.
Stephen Hawking is an insightful, absorbing, and definitive account of an
extraordinary life and a brilliant mind..”
