Review of “The Theory of Everything”
“Theory
of Everything” is a book consisting of seven lectures about the universe and
all the cool stuffs that any space, time and astronomy lover would want to
know. Sir Stephens William Hawking, one of the leading scientists of the 21st
century, a professor and well known author of one of the International best
sellers, “A Brief History of Time” presents his and other great scientists’ ideas
about the universe, space, time, and black holes via “Theory of Everything”.
Sir Hawking has used very simple language to explain how things went and are
going in the field of space technology. By reading his book, I have got an
impression that he is a person with a very good sense of humour for he presents
his ideas in a very ebullient manner.
The
book gives insight knowledge about various theories that govern the universe
and everything within it. The book can make its reader ponder about what was it
like at the beginning of time and space. It also presents its reader with the thoughts
and findings of various scientists about the universe. The book suggests that
despite tremendous efforts of the scientists, it is yet unknown about who or
what created the universe, why, how and when was it created.
Also,
what are black holes, and what are they made of is also discussed in the book.
Sir Hawking presents his idea about black holes not being completely black as
thought previously. He thinks that black holes evaporate and hence black hole
is not only end of everything but also a beginning.
A
grand unified theory that would unlock answers to all the unsolved questions
regarding anything is what the leading scientists of the era seek for. Sir
Hawking has clearly presented the need of a grand unified theory of everything
that would incorporate the classical, and quantum physics along with it. His
desire for this particular theory shall be successful. That is what I hope for.
Even
if you know nothing or less about science, you can definitely enjoy Sir
Hawking’s sense of humour and may be you might want to help him in finding the
theory of everything he is seeking for. I got an opportunity to read the
subject that I always wanted to read.
