The world-famous cosmologist and #1 bestselling author of A Brief History of Time leaves us with his final thoughts on the universe's biggest questions in this brilliant posthumous work. Is there a God? How did it all begin? Can we predict the future? What is inside a black hole? Is there other intelligent life in the universe? Will artificial intelligence outsmart us? How do we shape the future? Will we survive on Earth? Should we colonise space? Is time travel possible? Throughout his extraordinary career, Stephen Hawking expanded our understanding of the universe and unravelled some of its greatest mysteries. But even as his theoretical work on black holes, imaginary time and multiple histories took his mind to the furthest reaches of space, Hawking always believed that science could also be used to fix the problems on our planet.And now, as we face potentially catastrophic changes here on Earth - from climate change to dwindling natural resources to the threat of artificial super-intelligence - Stephen Hawking turns his attention to the most urgent issues for humankind.Wide-ranging, intellectually stimulating, passionately argued, and infused with his characteristic humour, Brief Answers to the Big Questions, the final book from one of the greatest minds in history, is a personal view on the challenges we face as a human race, and where we, as a planet, are heading next.A percentage of all royalties will go to charity.

A new theory of the universe, twenty years in the making, by Stephen Hawking and his close collaborator Thomas Hertog.Perhaps the biggest question Stephen Hawking tried to answer in his extraordinary life was how the universe could have created conditions so perfectly hospitable to life.Pondering this mystery led Hawking to study the big bang origin of the universe, but his early work ran into a crisis when the maths predicted many big bangs producing a multiverse - countless different universes, most of which were far too bizarre to harbour life.Holed up in the theoretical physics department at Cambridge, Stephen Hawking and his friend and collaborator Thomas Hertog worked shoulder to shoulder for twenty years on a new quantum theory of the cosmos. As their discoveries took them deeper into the big bang, they were startled to find a deeper level of evolution in which the physical laws themselves transform and simplify until particles, forces, and even time itself fades away. Once upon a time, perhaps, there was no time. This led them to a revolutionary idea: the laws of physics are not set in stone but are born and co-evolve as the universe they govern takes shape.On the Origin of Time takes the reader on a quest to understand questions bigger than our universe, peering into the extreme quantum physics of black holes and the big bang and drawing on the latest developments in string theory. As Hawking's final days drew near, the two collaborators published a final theory proposing their radical new Darwinian perspective on the origins of our universe.Hertog offers a striking new vision that ties together, more deeply than ever, the nature of the universe's birth with our existence. Their theory profoundly transforms the way we think about our place in the order of the cosmos and may ultimately prove Hawking's biggest legacy.

CHOSEN AS A BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIAN, DAILY TELEGRAPH, NEW STATESMAN AND BBC SCIENCE FOCUS'An intimate, unique, and inspiring perspective on the life and work of one of the greatest minds of our time. Filled with insight, humour, and never-before-told stories, it's a view of Stephen Hawking that few have seen and all will appreciate' James Clear, author of Atomic HabitsAn icon of the last fifty years, Stephen Hawking seems to encapsulate genius: not since Albert Einstein has a scientific figure held such a position in popular consciousness. In this enthralling memoir, writer and physicist Leonard Mlodinow tells the story of his friend and their collaboration, offering an intimate account of this giant of science. The two met in 2003, when Stephen asked Leonard if he would consider writing a book with him, the follow up to the bestselling A Brief History of Time. As they spent years working on a second book, The Grand Design, they forged a deep connection and Leonard gained a much better understanding of Stephen's daily life and struggles -- as well as his compassion and good humour. Together they obsessed over the perfect sentence, debated the physics, and occasionally punted on Cambridge's waterways with champagne and strawberries. In time, Leonard was able to finish Stephen's jokes, chide his sporadic mischief, and learn how the hardships of his illness helped forge that unique perspective on the universe. By weaving together their shared story with a clear-sighted portrayal of Hawking's scientific achievements, Mlodinow creates a beautiful portrait of Stephen Hawking as a brilliant, impish and generous man whose life was not only exceptional but also genuinely inspiring.

Audiokniha: Počas celej svojej výnimočnej životnej a profesionálnej dráhy Stephen Hawking rozšíril naše poznatky o vesmíre a objasnil niektoré z jeho najväčších záhad. A hoci jeho teoretická práca o čiernych dierach, imaginárnom čase a viacnásobných históriách zaviedla jeho myseľ do najvzdialenejších končín vesmíru, Hawking bol vždy presvedčený, že pomocou vedy dokážeme vyriešiť problémy aj na našej planéte. V čase, keď čelíme potenciálne katastrofickým zmenám na Zemi – od zmeny podnebia cez ubúdania prírodných zdrojov po hrozbu umelej super inteligencie –, obrátil Stephen Hawking pozornosť na najnaliehavejšie otázky ľudstva. Stručné odpovede na veľké otázky, posledná kniha Stephena Hawkinga, je intelektuálne podnetným, vášnivo vyargumentovaným osobným pohľadom vedca na výzvy, ktorým čelíme ako ľudstvo, a na to, kam ako planéta ďalej smerujeme. „Neopúšťať planétu Zem je ako byť stroskotancom na pustom ostrove a nepokúšať sa odtiaľ uniknúť." "Bojujme spoločne za to, aby každá žena a každý muž mohli prežiť slušný a bezpečný život, prekypujúci možnosťami a láskou. My všetci sme cestovatelia v čase, na spoločnej ceste do budúcnosti. Pracujme však spolu na tom, aby sa z tejto budúcnosti stalo miesto, ktoré chceme navštíviť. Buďte odvážni, zvedaví, odhodlaní, prekonávajte prekážky. Dá sa to."

Stephen Hawking byl jedním z nejvýznamnějších fyziků naší doby, který ovlivnil životy milionů lidí. Fyzik a spisovatel Leonard Mlodinow ve své nové knize nabízí unikátní a nanejvýš osobní portrét jedinečného muže, s nímž téměř dvě desetiletí spolupracoval na různých knihách a se kterým ho pojilo vřelé přátelství. Setkáváme se s Hawkingem jako s géniem, který se zaměřuje na odhalení záhad vesmíru a nakonec formuluje průkopnickou teorii černých děr, jež znovu rozvíří vody kosmologie a odkryje zcela nové cesty fyzikům zkoumajícím původ vesmíru. Setkáváme se také s Hawkingem jako kolegou, jemuž jeho nemoc umožňuje komunikovat rychlostí pouze šesti slov za minutu, ale který nikdy nezapomene do těchto rozhovorů začlenit i humor. A setkáváme se s Hawkingem také jako s přítelem, který toho dokáže tolik říct pouhým úsměvem nebo jen zvednutím obočí. Modinow nás seznámí s Hawkingovou vášní pro víno a karí, zasvětí nás do jeho vztahu k lásce, smrti a zdravotnímu postižení, nevyhýbá se ani hlubokým otázkám filozofie a fyziky. Ať už líčí Hawkingovu oddanost práci, nebo barvitě popisuje příběh o tom, jak se Hawking vzdorovitě vymočil u keře na dvorku restaurace, která neměla bezbariérovou toaletu, vždy dokáže skvěle zachytit jeho nezkrotného ducha. Příběh hlubokého přátelství, který máte před sebou, vás naučí mnohé nejen o povaze a užitečnosti fyziky, ale také o životě a schopnostech lidí překonat ty nejtěžší překážky.

An icon of the last fifty years, Stephen Hawking seems to encapsulate genius: not since Albert Einstein has a scientific figure held such a position in popular consciousness. In this enthralling memoir, writer and physicist Leonard Mlodinow tells the story of his friend and their friendship, offering an intimate account of this giant of science.The two met in 2003, when Stephen asked Leonard if he would consider writing a book with him, the follow up to the bestselling A Brief History of Time. As they spent years working on a second book, The Grand Design, they forged a deep connection and Leonard gained a much better understanding of Stephen's daily life and struggles - as well as his compassion and good humour. Together they obsessed over the perfect sentence, debated the physics, and occasionally punted on Cambridge's waterways with champagne and strawberries. In time, Leonard was able to finish Stephen's jokes, chide his sporadic mischief, and learn how the hardships of his illness helped forge that unique perspective on the universe.By weaving together their shared story with a clear-sighted portrayal of Hawking's scientific achievements, Mlodinow creates a beautiful portrait of Stephen Hawking as a brilliant, impish and generous man whose life was not only exceptional but also genuinely inspiring.

Franz Kafka wrote this letter to his father, Hermann Kafka, in November 1919. Max Brod, Kafka’s literary executor, relates that Kafka actually gave the letter to his mother to hand to his father, hoping it might renew a relationship that had lost itself in tension and frustration on both sides. But Kafka’s probing of the deep flaw in their relationship spared neither his father nor himself. He could not help seeing the failure of communication between father and son as another moment in the larger existential predicament depicted in so much of his work. Probably realizing the futility of her son’s gesture, Julie Kafka did not deliver the letter but instead returned it to its author.

Join the hunt for the cosmic beauty in numbers with stories of the discovery of the ten most admired equations of all time. Here are the stories of the ten most popular equations of all time as voted for by readers of Physics World, including - accessibly described here for the first time - the favourite equation of all, Euler's equation. Each is an equation that captures with beautiful simplicity what can only be described clumsily in words. Euler's equation [eip + 1 = 0] was described by respondents as 'the most profound mathematic statement ever written', 'uncanny and sublime', 'filled with cosmic beauty' and 'mind-blowing'. Collectively these equations also amount to the world's most concise and reliable body of knowledge. Many scientists and those with a mathematical bent have a soft spot for equations. This book explains both why these ten equations are so beautiful and significant, and the human stories behind them.
