Introducing Stephen Hawking

A Graphic Guide

Illustrator: Zarate, Oscar

Beschreibung

Stephen Hawking is the world-famous physicist. To the public he is a tragic figure - a brilliant scientist and author of the 9 million-copy-selling "A Brief History of Time", and yet confined to a wheelchair and almost completely paralysed. This guide explores Hawking's life, and the evolution of his work from his days as a student.
