Known for his breakthroughs in theoretical physics and his ability to make complex concepts accessible for all, Hawking was working on a final project at the time of his death: a book compiling his answers to the "big" questions that he was so often posed--questions that ranged beyond his academic field. Within these pages, he provides his personal views on our biggest challenges as a human race, and where we, as a planet, are heading next.

Autorenporträt
Stephen Hawking Oxford, 1942 - Cambridge, 2018. Ocupó la cátedra Lucasiana de Matemáticas que en otro tiempo ostentó Newton en la Universidad de Cambridge. Reconocido universalmente como uno de los más grandes físicos teóricos del mundo, el profesor Hawking escribió, pese a sus enormes limitaciones físicas, docenas de artículos que suponen en conjunto una aportación a la ciencia que aún no somos capaces de evaluar adecuadamente. A sus primeras obras de divulgación, Historia del tiempo. Del Big bang a los agujeros negros (1988) y El universo en una cáscara de nuez (2001), se le suman Brevísima historia del tiempo (2005) y El gran diseño (2010) - escritas con Leonard Mlodinow-, las antologías A hombros de gigantes (2003), la edición ilustrada de esta última obra (2004), Dios creó los números (2005), Los sueños de los que está hecha la materia (2011), Breve historia de mi vida (2013) y las conferencias emitidas en la BBC, recopiladas en Agujeros negros (2016). Stephen Hawking Oxford, 1942 - Cambridge, 2018. He held the Lucasian Chair of Mathematics, once occupied by Newton, at the University of Cambridge. Universally recognized as one of the greatest theoretical physicists in the world, Professor Hawking wrote, despite his severe physical limitations, dozens of papers that together represent a contribution to science we are still unable to fully assess. His early popular science works, A Brief History of Time (1988) and The Universe in a Nutshell (2001), were followed by A Briefer History of Time (2005) and The Grand Design (2010) - co-written with Leonard Mlodinow - as well as the anthologies On the Shoulders of Giants (2003), its illustrated edition (2004), God Created the Integers (2005), The Dreams That Stuff Is Made Of (2011), My Brief History (2013), and the BBC lectures compiled in Black Holes (2016).
