According to John Horgan, science journalist writing for The Wall Street Journal, Hawking, in his book, prefers string theory as a way of explaining the "theory of everything" (which Hawking predicts to be solved by "the end of this century") and, based on quantum mechanics, considers empty space as filled with virtual particles, "popping into ...
On the Origin of Time is a 2023 book by physicist Thomas Hertog about the theories of Stephen Hawking. [1] Hertog is a Belgian cosmologist working at KU Leuven university, who worked extensively with Hawking. [2] He wrote the book at Hawking's request to popularize the top-down cosmological theory that they had developed together. [3]

This book is a collection of essays and lectures written by Hawking, mainly about the makeup of black holes, and why they might be nodes from which other universes grow. Hawking discusses black hole thermodynamics, special relativity, general relativity, and quantum mechanics.
In theoretical physics, top-down cosmology is a proposal to regard the many possible histories of a given event as having real existence. [1] This idea of multiple histories has been applied to cosmology, in a theoretical interpretation in which the universe has multiple possible cosmologies, and in which reasoning backwards from the current state of the universe to a quantum superposition of ...
God Created the Integers: The Mathematical Breakthroughs That Changed History is a 2005 anthology, edited by Stephen Hawking, of "excerpts from thirty-one of the most important works in the history of mathematics." [1]
