斯蒂芬・霍金（ Stephen Hawking），著名的理论物理学家和宇宙学家，他于1942年1月8日出生于英国牛津，这一天正好是伽利略逝世300周年。8岁时，因父亲工作的原因而举家搬迁至伦敦以北20公里的小镇艾尔本斯，他在当地完成中学教育后，进人牛津大学主修物理。后来在夏玛（Dennis Sciama）的指导下，取得剑桥大学博士学位，1974年，成为皇家学院当时最年轻的院士。1979年，接任剑桥大学的卢卡斯数学讲座教授。（此头衔象征着无上的学术地位数学家艾萨克・贝罗是第一任，其弟子牛顿接任他为第二任，霍金为第17任。） 霍金主要的学术成就包括“霍金辐射”与“无边界宇宙模型”。目前，他所领导的剑桥大学的应用数学与理论物理系的“相对论与重力”小组，除了研究他所研究的早期宇宙外，也包括宇宙演化至今的现象，并参与了欧洲太空总署的普朗克探测卫星的计划。

From 1976 to the present day, there have been over 45 films adapted from the spine-tingling works of Stephen King.

The book rejects previous attempts to make the films and books fi...(展开全部)
