Before he was the voice of phones throughout the world, Stephen Hawking was arguably the smartest human being to have ever lived. He was even in The Simpsons!
You probably already know this, because you’re also smart, but he wrote a book called A Brief History of Time. It’s about very clever things.
But now there’s an illustrated version! Finally!
Finally we people who are pretending to be smarter than we really are can flick through this and get a rough idea of whatever it was Mr Hawking was going on about.
Then you can impress your mates with your knowledge of space-time and black holes and other time-related issues.
It’ll be the smartest thing you’ve ever done.
