Stephen W. Hawking
The great scientist of the 20TH century. He is a Lucasian Professor in Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge in England. He is considered by many to be the foremost theoretical physicist in the world today. His goal is to develop a “grand unifying theory” of the entire universe. Such a theory would encompass all known laws of science and describes how the universe began. While a student in college, he was diagnosed with amyothophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a degenerative disease of the nervous system sometimes called Lou Gebrig’s disease. With his 1988 best seller. A Brief History of Time, Hawking became perhaps the best known scientist in the world. Why the rush to buy a dense volume of mind-bending physics? Ever wry, Hawking insists. “No one can resist the idea of a crippled genius”.
