5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent collection of Hawking's papers on the subject,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hawking On The Big Bang And Black Holes (Advanced Series in Astrophysics and Cosmology) (Paperback)
This collection of the original papers of one of the pioneers of black hole and big bang theory is an excellent compendium of work on the subject. It shows the development of the theory, along with various co-authors, such as Penrose, Hartle, Gibbons, etc., from 1970 to 1992, during which most of this theory was developed. He discusses various possible quantum states as well as topologies of the universe and their possible outcomes in terms of its evolution in time. Highly technical, for the specialist only, not the general public, as were some of his other books.
