#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

A landmark volume in science writing by one of the great minds of our time, Stephen Hawking's book explores such profound questions as: How did the universe begin - and what made its start possible?

Does time always flow forward? Is the universe unending - or are there boundaries? Are there other dimensions in space? What will happen when it all ends?

Told in language we all can understand, A Brief History of Time plunges into the exotic realms of black holes and quarks, of antimatter and "arrows of time," of the big bang and a bigger God - where the possibilities are wondrous and unexpected.

With exciting images and profound imagination, Stephen Hawking brings us closer to the ultimate secrets at the very heart of creation.
