The Theory Of Everything

Average rating4
Very interesting lectures from the one and only Stephen Hawking. But these topics are explained with more detail in his book a brief history of time.
It's ironic that a book on Theory of Everything is of less than 130 pages. But the author does an excellent job of covering various personalities & their theories of the last 2000 years.
But this book is a tough read for a non-physics enthusiast. It covers so many concepts & theories without detailing all of them; and for the better of it or else this book would have been more difficult to understand. I had to read about some concepts from elsewhere to make sure that I did not get lost.
The writing style of the author is witty, he takes a linear storytelling approach which simplifies the reading, and in most places gives simple examples to understand difficult concepts. Loved the arguments on the role of God in creating/destroying universe.
Definitely worth a 2nd read!!!
Unlike the title suggests, it's not a biography like the movie ... just a series of awesome lectures by Sir Baba Hawking ...
