About this listen

Based on a series of lectures given at Cambridge University, The Theory of Everything presents the most complex concepts of physics—both past and present—in a clear and accessible manner. Stephen Hawking enlightens readers and exposes them to the rich history of scientific thought and the complexities of the universe in which we live.

To technical

Narrator was good but the book was far to technical for us. Listened for about 1 hour but had to stop as it was beyond us.
