STEPHEN HAWKING: The Man Who Defied the Odds and Changed the World

Stephen Hawking was one of the most brilliant and influential physicists of our time, who made many groundbreaking discoveries and contributions to the field of cosmology, the study of the origin, structure, and evolution of the universe. He also expressed his views on the nature and meaning of reality, the laws of physics, and the role of God, which were shaped by his scientific explorations and rational thinking. He believed that the universe and its phenomena could be explained by natural laws and phenomena, without the need for supernatural intervention or divine design. He also believed that the universe and its laws were not unique or definite, but rather probabilistic and contingent, depending on the observations and measurements of its observers.

In this book, you will learn about Hawking's life and work, from his early years to his fame and influence as a public figure, a best-selling author, and a cultural icon. You will also discover his research on black holes, singularities, and the event horizon, his work on the origin and fate of the universe, the big bang, and inflation, his views on the nature and meaning of reality, the laws of physics, and the role of God, and his legacy, awards, honors, and social causes, such as the Breakthrough Initiatives, the Paralympic Games, and the Stephen Hawking Foundation.
