Con "La grande storia del tempo", Stephen Hawking, avvalendosi della collaborazione del fisico americano Leonard Mlodinow, ripresenta le proprie riflessioni sulle origini e il destino dell'universo già trattate nel libro "Dal big bang ai buchi neri" (1988). In questa edizione aggiornata e illustrata, oltre a far uso di un gran numero di esempi, diagrammi e illustrazioni esplicative, Hawking parla delle più recenti scoperte, dagli sviluppi della teoria delle superstringhe ai progressi nella ricerca di una teoria unificata della fisica.

Per tutta la vita, Stephen Hawking si è dedicato a indagare il mondo attraverso la lente della fisica, maneggiando concetti complicatissimi in bilico tra scienza e filosofia: dalla natura dei buchi neri all'origine del tempo, fino alla ricerca di un senso per la nostra esperienza su questo sperduto pianeta, ai confini di una remota galassia sospesa nell'impressionante vastità del cosmo.
