"It doesn't take an Einstein to understand modern physics," says Professor Wolfson at the outset of these 24 lectures on what may be the most important subjects in the universe: relativity and quantum physics. Both have reputations for complexity. But the basic ideas behind them are, in fact, simple and comprehensible by anyone. These dynamic and illuminating lectures begin with a brief overview of theories of physical reality starting with Aristotle and culminating in Newtonian or "classical" physics.

Stephen Hawking not only unraveled some of the universe's greatest mysteries but also believed science plays a critical role in fixing problems here on Earth. Now, as we face immense challenges on our planet - including climate change, the threat of nuclear war, and the development of artificial intelligence - he turns his attention to the most urgent issues facing us. Will humanity survive? Should we colonize space? Does God exist? These are just a few of the questions Hawking addresses in this wide-ranging, passionately argued final book from one of the greatest minds in history.

I cannot tell you if the content is any good...
I'm unable to comment on the quality of the content. I have listened to this 6 nights in a row. I've yet to stay awake beyond a few sentences after the intro.
Tony Shaloub's voice is great. After he advises to take a deep breath and get comfortable, it's a matter of minutes before I'm out like a light.

I loved this little story and it is narrated perfectly by Tony Shalhoub. I would really love to hear more stories narrated by him. I will definitely be looking into more by the author too.
