Publisher's Synopsis

The new edition of this bestselling biography of Stephen Hawking includes two additional chapters. In the first, John Gribbin explores important and exciting new developments in the field of time travel, Stephen Hawking's latest area of research, while in the second, Michael White takes a more personal look at Hawking's life in recent years and his role as a celebrity. "Well-nigh unputdownable...[It] ought to be read alongside A Brief History of Time as a kind of explanatory supplement" - Heather Couper, The Times Educational Supplement "A gripping account of a physicist whose speculations could prove as revolutionary as those of Albert Einstein" - Bernard Dixon, New Statesman & Society
