About the Author
A Note from the Publisher
 
Stephen Hawking was regularly asked for his thoughts on the “big questions” of the day by scientists, tech entrepreneurs, senior business figures, political leaders and the general public.

A percentage of the royalties will go to the Motor Neurone Disease Association and the Stephen Hawking Foundation.
