Product Description:
From One of the Most Brilliant Minds of Our Time
Comes a Book that Clarifies His Most Important Ideas

Stephen Hawking’s worldwide bestseller, A Brief History of Time, remains one of the landmark volumes in scientific writing of our time. But for years readers have asked for a more accessible formulation of its key concepts—the nature of space and time, the role of God in creation, and the history and future of the universe.

Professor Hawking’s response is this new work that will guide nonscientists everywhere in the ongoing search for the tantalizing secrets at the heart of time and space.…

Although “briefer,” this book is much more than a mere explanation of Hawking’s earlier work. A Briefer History of Time both clarifies and expands on the great subjects of the original, and records the latest developments in the field—from string theory to the search for a unified theory of all the forces of physics. Thirty-seven full-color illustrations enhance the text and make A Briefer History of Time an exhilarating and must-have addition in its own right to the great literature of science and ideas.

- Great read!
I bought this book at a great deal, and it arrived and was in wonderful condition. Perfect.
nothing wrong with it. A great book, and a great price! Thank you! a late review, but it was a great savings and I would buy again!
and since its a re-edit version ("briefer history of time") it's a whole lot easier to understand for those that don't hold a doctorate degree in physics! Like me!

- I love this book
This is a wonderful book -- I couldn't put it down. I highly recommend it. Now I'm going to get the "more difficult" previous version, A Brief History of Time, and can refer back and forth. Stephen Hawking's tv specials are exciting to watch; they're on PBS from time to time.

Rating:

- Underwhelmed
While this book is shorter and more entertaining than its not-as-brief predecessor, I found it still unable to make the very esoteric subjects of space-time curvature, quantum mechanics and the behavior of sub-atomic particles understandable to me (MS Computer Science). Hawking clearly has a great sense of humor, and his effort to explain some of the results of his life's work to the general public is laudable, but this book failed to do that, at least for this reader.

Rating:

- Non-Fiction for Science Fiction Lovers
Excellent presentation of complex scientific theories. Stephen Hawking knows how to extract core principals and shape them into digestible morsels for his readers to consume and enjoy. The material is an update from his earlier Brief History of Time, and has the same cast of characters.

If only he wrote fiction!

Rating:

- Wonderful
Even briefer, this material requires a few readings to wrap the brain around. Very good examples though.
