Summary
Stephen Hawking: A Story of Friendship and Physics
Taking us behind the scenes as Hawking indulges his passion for wine and curry as he shares his feelings about love, death and disability, and as he tackles the deep questions of philosophy and physics, Mlodinov manages to capture Hawking's steadfast spirit. Stephen was known for shaking up the world of physics, writing about it, and doing it all despite his ailing body. However, for someone who can't move, and especially someone who can't speak, it's just as difficult to maintain long-term friendships, to form deep connections, to find love. Steven knew that human connections and love, not just physics, kept him alive. This touching story of friendship offers us invaluable lessons from one of the greatest physicists - about life, the universe and the ability to overcome daunting obstacles.
