Summary
 In this compelling memoir, Jane Hawking relates the inside story of her extraordinary marriage. As Stephen's academic renown soared, his body was collapsing under the assaults of motor neurone disease, and Jane's candid account of trying to balance his 24-hour care with the needs of their growing family is inspirational. This is a book about optimism, love and change that will resonate with readers everywhere.©2014 W.F. Howes Ltd Medical Professionals & Academics Science & Technology

I enjoyed this mainly for the insights it offered into the British psych of the post war generation, and into academic culture. What an obnoxious man Stephen comes across as, and Jane incredibly, perhaps overly, accommodating, obliging and self-sacrificing. Reader is excellent, including with French and American accents.
