Clear introduction into current cosmology
Mr. Hawking introduces some modern hypotheses and theories about formation of the universe we live in, and discusses possible fate of it. He explains most scientific concepts very clearly.
This book can act as a very good introduction into today's world of science.
Highly entertaining read. My son is thinking about going to Uni to study science, so I will be suggesting this to him as it will make science come alive with the fascinating human element of discoveries, intrigue and overall steps in human development.
