In this book, his last, the great astrophysicist and author of "A Brief History of Time" shares with us his final thoughts on the greatest questions humanity faces.
Stephen Hawking (1942-2018) is recognized as the most eminent scientist since Einstein, known both for his groundbreaking work in physics and cosmology and for his playful sense of humor. He educated millions of readers about the origins of the universe and the nature of black holes and inspired millions more by defying a terrifying ALS diagnosis, which initially gave him just 2 years to live. Later, he would be forced to communicate using only a few facial muscles, yet he continued to advance research in his field and remained a respected voice on social and humanitarian issues.
Hawking not only solved some of the greatest mysteries of science but also believed that science plays a vital role in solving our problems here on Earth. Now, as we face enormous challenges for our planet - including climate change, the threat of nuclear war, and the development of artificial intelligence - he turns his attention to the most critical questions posed.
Will humanity survive? Does it make sense to colonize Space? Is there a God? These are just some of the questions Hawking tackles in this broad, passionate final work of one of the greatest minds in history.
With a foreword by actor Eddie Redmayne, who won an Oscar for portraying Stephen Hawking, an introduction by Nobel laureate Kip Thorne, and an afterword by Hawking's daughter, Lucy, "Brief Answers to the Big Questions" is a wonderful farewell message to all of us.

Excellent book. Quite understandable. I set aside the black holes because this phenomenon is quite incomprehensible. The author's views on higher power are well-known. It is worth reading by everyone.
Very nice book for understanding the topics it deals with.
At some points it may be tiring because it gives a lot of details, but it is one of those books that are worth it. From the mediocre cover, it gave me the impression that it is a book for children, but it is very good.
I recommend it.
As a 16-year-old child who loves science subjects and wants to pursue a career in astrophysics in the future, I found the book to be quite good, although I have read better ones. Personally, I was tired of the fact that it constantly mentions names of the author's collaborators (because I kept going back to see who they were referring to) and compared to other books I have read, I would have liked it to have a little more analysis on some of the things it mentions. Overall, it is still quite good.
I always remember from school not liking physics, mathematics, and generally the exact sciences. However, this book puts you in the world of natural and exact sciences and makes you love them and see how interesting they are.
A book simply and comprehensibly written, dealing with topics that are not so simple. It is worth reading!
Always a lover of Physics and generally of the natural sciences, I stumbled upon this book and I didn't even realize when it ended. Excellent textbook of popularized science accessible to everyone.
Very good book! You start reading and you can't stop. It's like having a dialogue with Hawking. Excellent
Simple, easy, comfortable to read, easy to understand, even though it delves into the mysteries of physics, the world, and the universe. I opened it hesitantly, as I am somewhat skeptical of books of similar content, but it was interesting, exciting, and definitely leaves you with the best impressions. I highly recommend it.
I read it in English and then, after being impressed, I bought it for my 70+ year old father, as it is both a comprehensive book and written in a simple way by the greatest genius of the 21st century (so far).
Excellent book, deeply targeted for anyone seeking correct and well-documented answers to the biggest philosophical and scientific questions, impeccable translation and very well formulated. I recommend it to everyone!!!
I read this book about a month ago and I can say that it reshaped my way of thinking! Hawking presents his views on several subjects in a language that is easily understandable for the general public, presents several interesting elements, and puts the reader into deep thought. By reading it, paths open up for the reader that many of us didn't even believe existed. After reading it, you have an insatiable need to explore, find answers to big questions, and pose new ones or even answer everyday questions in a completely different way. I highly recommend it!
Very nice book for people interested in such topics. It is worth reading by everyone.
I bought it a week ago and started reading it a little later. It's amazing! This person was the only one who had the talent to captivate you even with the simplest facts!
