* A modern classic and international bestseller, A Brief History of Time tackles the fundamental questions of physics – where did the universe come from? 


* How did it come into existence? Where does it end? – in clear and jargon-free language. 


* Stephen Hawking, regarded as one of the most brilliant theoretical physicists of all time, applies his searing intellect to these mind-bending questions, inviting us to share his wonder at the marvels of the universe, from string theory and spiral galaxies to black holes and the Big Bang. 


* The key to the phenomenal success of this book is Hawking’s ability to render complex concepts intelligible, with clarity concision and wit, to everyone.
