From the Back Cover:

Stephen Hawking has long been a legend I the specialist field of astrophysics. Now, since the publication of 'A Brief History of Time' – his introduction to today’s most important theories on the cosmos which has remained on the bestseller lists since it first appeared – he is known to the world at large as the man who has changed the way we look at the universe.

Written with his assistance, 'Stephen Hawking’s Universe' is a highly readable and skilful account of his contribution to theoretical physics. Encompassing his theories on the Big Bang and the nature of black holes, containing also the transcript of one of his most seminal essays, this book lucidly charts the significant strides made towards a complete understanding of the universe by the man already hailed as the new Einstein.
