具体描述
The world-famous cosmologist and #1 bestselling author of A Brief History of Time leaves us with his final thoughts on the biggest questions facing humankind.
Stephen Hawking was the most renowned scientist since Einstein, known both for his groundbreaking work in physics and cosmology and for his mischievous sense of humor. He educated millions of readers about the origins of the universe and the nature of black holes, and inspired millions more by defying a terrifying early prognosis of ALS, which originally gave him only two years to live. In later life he could communicate only by using a few facial muscles, but he continued to advance his field and serve as a revered voice on social and humanitarian issues.
Hawking not only unraveled some of the universe’s greatest mysteries but also believed science plays a critical role in fixing problems here on Earth. Now, as we face immense challenges on our planet—including climate change, the threat of nuclear war, and the development of artificial intelligence—he turns his attention to the most urgent issues facing us.
Will humanity survive? Should we colonize space? Does God exist? These are just a few of the questions Hawking addresses in this wide-ranging, passionately argued final book from one of the greatest minds in history.
Featuring a foreword by Eddie Redmayne, who won an Oscar playing Stephen Hawking, an introduction by Nobel Laureate Kip Thorne, and an afterword from Hawking’s daughter, Lucy, Brief Answers to the Big Questions is a brilliant last message to the world.

##As if I'm reading the Torvalds' book all over again - another kind of geniuses; different paths from known to unknown; glossing over the hardships; and the same kind of dry humor.
评分##R4 read by Anton Lesser & Lucy Hawking
评分##3/25-4/3/2019. 对霍金回答“为什么上帝不存在”和他举办的时间旅行者party印象深刻。
评分##书搁置了很久都没看完最后是听本老师念的有声书听完的，这样内容上较为琐碎、并不连贯的书很适合听有声书
评分##人人都该读的一本书，霍金的远见真是常人不可及的。未来人类的发展主要是寻找地球以外的生存地以及引导AI的发展方向。每次提到Trump就觉得好笑。最后说要尽可能寻找下一个Einstein，wherever she might be. 这个she看到也觉得真暖。
评分##As if I'm reading the Torvalds' book all over again - another kind of geniuses; different paths from known to unknown; glossing over the hardships; and the same kind of dry humor.
评分##简单直白，非常乐观，但问题重述过多。"So remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don't just give up. Unleash your imagination. Shape the future."
评分##霍老师可能不是最完美的科学家 但是确实很有智慧和写作天赋。
评分##Q&A in a theoretical level. Good for outsiders but lame for peers
