A Brief History of Time: Space-Time, Black Holes, and the Universe

Hawking's A Brief History of Time explores fundamental questions about the universe, from its origins and structure to the nature of space and time. The text begins by outlining historical models of the universe and then transitions into modern physics, including relativity and quantum mechanics. The book grapples with the unification of these theories, discussing black holes, the Big Bang, and the search for a complete, consistent model of the universe. Hawking uses accessible language and thought experiments to illuminate complex topics like the arrow of time, the anthropic principle, and the possibility of time travel. Also discussed is the nature of scientific discovery through examining the lives and disputes of Galileo and Newton. The author also acknowledges those who have helped him to live a more full life despite his medical challenges.keepSave to notecopy_alldocsAdd noteaudio_magic_eraserAudio OverviewschoolBriefing doc
