I don't know why, but i felt this book like a Dejavu. A lot of the theories explained here are actually present in the "Theory About Everything" (or it might be the opposite? sorry i don't remember which one came first) but in any case, is nice to... be aware of the stage of science in these days, to have some reference about the different version of how everything started and with a little extra about time travel, dimension crossing, light speed vehicles, etc, etc.

It is true that the author really put his best at simplifying all those complex theories to more common words and examples but still, there some concepts that i recommended to take a sit and just read very carefully so you can have a better grasp of it.

In short and to end this, the book is really cool, and, if your're familiar with the Big Bang Theory TV Series then you might as well give it a shot, many of the references and scientific jokes in the tv show comes from the ideas of the big minds that Hawking (and Hawking himself) expose in here.

Kudos for Science!!
