Descrição
Stephen Hawking, one of the modern world’s most brilliant minds, guides the reader in a search for answers to some of the humanity’s biggest questions: What is the origin of the universe? Is it infinite? What about time? Has it always existed, or does it have a beginning and an end? Are there other dimensions beyond the three spatial ones? And what will happen when everything ends? With creative illustrations and lucid, good-humored text, Hawking unveils everything from the mysteries of particle physics to the dynamics that move hundreds of millions of galaxies throughout the universe. For the initiated, this is a beautiful representation of complex concepts; for the layman, it is a glimpse into the deepest secrets of creation.
