Description
Stephen Hawking's remarkable life story is one of unbridled brilliance and determination. From his early days at school to his groundbreaking work in cosmology and theoretical physics, Hawking defied the odds of a debilitating disease to achieve greatness. Diagnosed with ALS at just twenty-one, Hawking's physical limitations seemed insurmountable. Yet, he continued to push the boundaries of human knowledge, producing a bestselling book on cosmology and becoming a beloved figure in popular culture through his appearances on TV shows like Star Trek and The Simpsons. This biography, written by Jim Ottaviani and illustrated by Leland Myrick, offers an intimate portrait of Hawking's life, balancing his scientific achievements with his personal story as a public figure and advocate for disability rights.
