Book Summary – 
A Brief History of Time is a groundbreaking science book by physicist Stephen Hawking that explores the nature of the universe in a way that is accessible to non-scientists. First published in 1988, the book discusses complex concepts such as the Big Bang, black holes, time travel, and the nature of space and time. Hawking examines major questions about the origin, structure, and ultimate fate of the universe, blending cosmology with philosophy. Using clear explanations and minimal technical jargon, he invites readers to consider the fundamental laws that govern the cosmos and our place within it. The book became a global bestseller and is widely praised for making advanced scientific ideas understandable and engaging to a general audience.

About the Author – 
Stephen Hawking was a world-renowned British theoretical physicist, cosmologist, and author, best known for his work on black holes and the origins of the universe. Born on January 8, 1942, in Oxford, England, he was diagnosed with a rare form of motor neurone disease (ALS) at the age of 21, which gradually left him almost completely paralyzed. Despite this, Hawking continued his research and teaching, making significant contributions to theoretical physics, particularly in the areas of black hole radiation and quantum gravity. He held the prestigious position of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge and received numerous awards throughout his career. His ability to communicate complex science with clarity and enthusiasm made him one of the most iconic scientists of the modern era.
