   Extractions: Stephen Hawking was born on the 300th anniversary of Galileo's death. He has come to be thought of as the greatest mind in physics since Albert Einstein. With similar interests discovering the deepest workings of the universe he has been able to communicate arcane matters not just to other physicists but to the general public. Hawking grew up outside London in an intellectual family. His father was a physician and specialist in tropical diseases; his mother was active in the Liberal Party. He was an awkward schoolboy, but knew from early on that he wanted to study science. He became increasingly skilled in mathematics and in 1958 he and some friends built a primitive computer that actually worked. In 1959 he won a scholarship to Oxford University, where his intellectual capabilities became more noticeable. In 1962 he got his degree with honors and went to Cambridge University to pursue a PhD in cosmology. There he became intrigued with black holes (first proposed by Robert Oppenheimer ) and "space-time singularities," or events in which the laws of physics seem to break down. After receiving his PhD, he stayed at Cambridge, becoming known even in his 20s for his pioneering ideas and use of Einstein's formulas, as well as his questioning of older, established physicists. In 1968 he joined the staff of the Institute of Astronomy in Cambridge and began to apply the laws of thermodynamics to black holes by means of very complicated mathematics. He published the very technical book

   Extractions: Stephen Hawking 's parents lived in London where his father was undertaking research into medicine. However, London was a dangerous place during World War II and Stephen's mother was sent to the safer town of Oxford where Stephen was born. The family were soon back together living in Highgate, north London, where Stephen began his schooling. In 1950 Stephen's father moved to the Institute for Medical Research in Mill Hill. The family moved to St Albans so that the journey to Mill Hill was easier. Stephen attended St Albans High School for Girls (which took boys up to the age of 10). When he was older he attended St Albans school but his father wanted him to take the scholarship examination to go to Westminster public school. However Stephen was ill at the time of the examinations and remained at St Albans school which he had attended from the age of 11. Stephen writes in [2]:- I got an education there that was as good as, if not better than, that I would have had at Westminster. I have never found that my lack of social graces has been a hindrance.

   Extractions: STEPHEN HAWKING Theoretical Physicist Stephen Hawking is considered the world's foremost theoretical physicist, an expert on black holes whose intention is to unify quantum mechanics with Einstein 's general theory of relativity, forming a single theory to explain the origin (and end) of the universe. Hawking, a professor of mathematics at Cambridge University, is the author of the best-selling book A Brief History of Time and something of a celebrity: he has made guest appearances on the TV shows Star Trek and The Simpsons . Hawking has suffered from ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also called Lou Gehrig 's disease) since he was a young man and is confined to a wheelchair. Extra credit : In 1979 Hawking took the post of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Oxford. According to Hawking's own site , "The chair was founded in 1663 with money left in the will of the Reverend Henry Lucas, who had been the Member of Parliament for the University. It was first held by Isaac Barrow, and then in 1663 by Isaac Newton "... Another famed mathematics professor at Oxford was the author

    Extractions: Gli ultimi tre minuti. Congetture sul destino dell'universo Davies Paul ; Come avverrà la fine del mondo? L'universo sarà annientato da un'esplosione o si spegnerà a poco a poco? Passando in rassegna le più recenti ipotesi della scienza sulla sorte ultima dell'universo, Paul Davies, illustra gli aspetti fisici di uno dei concetti più suggestivi dell'immaginario dell'umanità: il Giorno del Giudizio, la Fine di Tutto. Dalla vita delle stelle a quella delle particelle, "Gli ultimi tre minuti" è un resoconto dei risultati raggiunti dalla fisica contemporanea e, insieme, un'analisi degli aspetti filosofici della questione. Come dice Davies " ...possiamo tutt'al più sperare che i nostri discendenti arrivino a conoscere lo scopo dell'universo prima che scadano gli ultimi tre minuti".

20. Stephen Hawking, The Big Bang, And God
    Transcript of a speech by Dr. Henry Schaefer addressing 'A Brief History of Time' from a Christian perspective.  
    http://www.leaderu.com/real/ri9404/bigbang.html
    
    Extractions: (This article is a transcript of a lecture Dr. Schaefer presented at the University of colorado in the spring of 1994, sponsored by Christian Leadership and other campus ministries. Over 500 students and professors were present.) Stephen Hawking's bestseller A Brief History of Time is the most popular book about cosmology ever written. The questions cosmology addresses are scientifically and theologically profound. Hawking's book covers both of these implications. Cosmology is the study of the universe as a wholeit's structure, origin and development. I won't answer all the questions Hawking raises concerning cosmology, but I will try to make comments on many of them. I caution here that you should not confuse cosmology with cosmetology, the art of beautifying the hair, skin, and nails! Here are some of the questions cosmology seeks to answer (As elsewhere in this lecture, I borrow heavily from astrophysicist Hugh Ross' excellent books
