"The title of this book," the authors write, "differs by only two letters from that of a book first published in 1988." That book was Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time, a publishing phenomenon that sold more than 10 million copies. Despite its success, readers confessed to difficulty in grasping its more abstruse concepts. Hawking and Mlodinow (a physicist and writer) eliminated many of the technical explanations and clarified and expanded on the subjects of greatest interest-the creation of the universe, curved space, quantum gravity.
