　　《霍金传（英文注释版）》为英文版，让你在英语水平在阅读中得到大幅度提升。霍金是继爱因斯坦之后最杰出的物理学家。他于1942年出生于英国牛津，先后就读于牛津大学和剑桥大学，学习数学、物理学和宇宙学。1963年霍金经诊断得了肌萎缩性侧索硬化症，医生说他最多只能活两年。在经历了一段短暂的失望和沮丧后，霍金又开始了他的宇宙学研究。他后来在相对论、“大爆炸”和黑洞等领域取得了突出的研究成果。霍金1988年出版的宇宙学著作《时间简史：从大爆炸到黑洞》，是一部里程碑式的畅销书。霍金被确诊患病已达40多年，但他仍孜孜于宇宙起源的理论研究，仍在为大统一理论而耕耘不已。霍金现任剑桥大学卢卡斯数学教授，这也是牛顿曾担任过的职位。
