Opis: Introducing Stephen Hawking - J.P. McEvoy, Oscar Zárate

Stephen Hawking is the world-famous physicist with a cameo in ?The Simpsons on his CV?, but outside his academic field his work is little understood. To the public he is a tragic figure ? a brilliant scientist and author of the 9 million-copy-selling ?A Brief History of Time?, and yet confined to a wheelchair and almost completely paralysed. Hawking?s major contribution to science has been to integrate the two great theories of 20th-century physics ? Einstein?s General Theory of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. J.P. McEvoy and Oscar Zarate?s brilliant graphic guide explores Hawking?s life, the evolution of his work from his days as a student, and his breathtaking discoveries about where these fundamental laws break down or overlap, such as on the edge of a Black Hole or at the origin of the Universe itself.
