Purchase "A Brief History Of Time" by Stephen HawkingFrom the big bang to the theory of relativity, this phenomenal bestseller will challenge your imagination and expand your grasp of the cosmos.

I thank Stephen Hawking for writing this great book. He is a great physicist and also a great teacher. When I bought this book, I thought it would be boring for a non scientist such as I am. But it's quite interesting and easy to understand, and anyone that sincerely interests himself in the world he's living in should read it.

Purchase "The Large Scale Structure Of Space Time" by Stephen HawkingThis book of Stephen Hawking is the more elegant one on modern General Relativity and is my favorite book. It covers in brilliant form the gravitational collapse of a star, the theory of black holes, the space-time singularities, the causal structure of space-time, and in its end the initial singularity of the universe, popularly known as the Big Bang.

Purchase "The Nature Of Space And Time" by Stephen HawkingHow could quantum gravity, a theory that could explain the earlier moments of the big bang and the physics of the enigmatic objects known as black holes, be constructed? Why does our patch of the universe look just as Einstein predicted, with no hint of quantum effects in sight? What strange quantum pro-cesses can cause black holes to evaporate, and what happens to all the information that they swallow? Why does time go forward, not backward?  In this book, the two opponents touch on all these questions.
