Throughout Kitty Ferguson also summarizes and explains the cutting-edge science in which Hawking has been engaged.
Stephen Hawking is written with the clarity and simplicity for which all Kitty Ferguson's books have been praised. The result is a captivating account of an extraordinary life and mind.
