Lucy Hawking - Brief Answers to the Big Questions

From Saturday Morning, 9:35 am on 20 October 2018

The late Stephen Hawking was an acclaimed theoretical physicist and considered to be one of the world's greatest thinkers. He held the position of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge for 30 years and is the author of the bestselling A Brief History of Time as well as a host of other works. After he died in March of this year, his academic colleagues, family and the Stephen Hawking Estate moved to complete a project that was already in development - a book, Brief Answers to the Big Questions. It aims to answer 'the big questions' that Hawking had frequently been asked throughout his life, with those answers taken from his vast personal archive. Kim talks to Stephen's daughter Lucy, who was part of the book's production and wrote its Afterword.
