Stephen Hawking argues with clarity and wit that the fundamental questions of existence — why the universe exists, what governs it, and where it is headed — are not beyond the reach of human understanding. With intellectual elegance, the narrative chronicles humanity's evolving grasp of space and time, from Aristotle and Newton to Einstein and quantum mechanics, illustrating how each breakthrough reshaped our picture of reality. Hawking's tone is both authoritative and warmly conversational, making even the most abstract concepts — wormholes, imaginary time, and the uncertainty principle — feel tangible and thrilling. Widely regarded as one of the most influential science books ever written, it remains an essential read for anyone who has ever looked up at the night sky and wondered about the nature of the universe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887917773019,"sku":"2026200007774-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/2cba4654-c176-4262-aabc-aa271243db77.png?v=1781749177","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007774-secondhand-a-brief-history-of-time-from-the-big-bang-to-black-holes","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
