Annotation
This condensed version of A Brief History of Time captures the essence of the original in a accessible style that will appeal to nonscientists. It brings the science up-to-date and includes discussion of relativity, curved space, the evolution of the universe, wormholes and time travel. Brief biographical sketches of Albert Einstein, Galileo Galilei, and Isaac Newton are included, as is a glossary.
