520    "Dr. Stephen Hawking was the most renowned scientist since
       Einstein, known both for his groundbreaking work in 
       physics and cosmology and for his mischievous sense of 
       humor. He educated millions of readers about the origins 
       of the universe and the nature of black holes, and 
       inspired millions more by defying a terrifying early 
       prognosis of ALS, which originally gave him only two years
       to live. In later life he could communicate only by using 
       a few facial muscles, but he continued to advance his 
       field and serve as a revered voice on social and 
       humanitarian issues. 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 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. Featuring a foreword by Eddie Redmayne, 
       who won an Oscar playing Stephen Hawking, an introduction 
       by Nobel Laureate Kip Thorne, and an afterword from 
       Hawking's daughter, Lucy." --|c(Source of summary not
