But even as his theoretical work on black holes, imaginary time and multiple histories took his mind to the furthest reaches of space, Hawking always believed that science could also be used to fix the problems on our planet.And now, as we face potentially catastrophic changes here on Earth - from climate change to dwindling natural resources to the threat of artificial super-intelligence - Stephen Hawking turns his attention to the most urgent issues for humankind.Wide-ranging, intellectually stimulating, passionately argued, and infused with his characteristic humour, Brief Answers to the Big Questions, the final book from one of the greatest minds in history, is a personal view on the challenges we face as a human race, and where we, as a planet, are heading next.A percentage of all royalties will go to charity. Review: Hawking’s last masterpiece. - Just before reading this book I read Brief history of time by Hawking which was mind boggling too. I feel this book is the continuation of that book in a better way, as Hawking has done more research and has learned more from his experience and came up with better ideas. You won’t find this hard to read as he has written it in a simple language so that every one can understand. The way the book has answered all 10 major questions related to mankind is just in a perfect synchronised way that the reader will be enjoy to finish them in that way.I am glad that I have read this greats man’s last work and it has certainly changed my perspective towards things. Review: Simplified and understandable answers to questions that we ponder - The book is a collection of answers given by the man with such a beautiful heart and very innovative and creative brain. His answers and the reasoning to it are really insightful. The ways in which things can be seen and perceived are delightful to know.

His answers and the reasoning to it are really insightful. The ways in which things can be seen and perceived are delightful to know. Will recommend ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Thoughtful Farewell from a Giant Mind *by A***N on 6 August 2025* Published posthumously, this book brings together Stephen Hawking’s final thoughts on ten of the most profound questions we face. His daughter, Lucy Hawking, and the Stephen Hawking Estate were closely involved in shaping this collection, ensuring it reflects his voice and vision. This is Stephen Hawking’s final message to the world — a collection of ten essays tackling some of the most pressing and profound issues of our time. The chapters span a wide range of topics: from the existence of God and the future of artificial intelligence, to whether time travel is possible and how we might survive as a species. What makes the book compelling is Hawking’s ability to engage with such heavy questions without losing sight of his audience. He never talks down to the reader, yet he rarely lets the science become impenetrable. Two chapters especially stood out to me. Chapter 1, where he addresses the question “Is there a God?”, is striking for its clarity and honesty. While he’s respectful in tone and careful not to ruffle religious feathers unnecessarily, he is still frank and direct in stating his views. And Chapter 5, on black holes, is probably the most accessible and elegant explanation of the subject I’ve come across. Hawking distills decades of research into a few pages of crisp, often witty, insight. That said, despite Hawking’s efforts to simplify concepts and keep a touch of humour throughout, the book does get a bit dry at times — an understandable challenge given the complexity of the material. Some chapters are simply more engaging than others. Still, this book is a wonderful parting gift — a thoughtful, accessible summary of how Stephen Hawking saw the universe, our role in it, and the questions that should drive us forward. Highly recommended for anyone curious about science, philosophy, or the future of humanity. Pros: Ambitious questions, clearly explained science, and Hawking’s trademark curiosity. Cons: Occasional dry stretches and uneven pacing across chapters. ## Frequently Bought Together - Brief Answers to the Big Questions: 'A beautiful little book by a brilliant mind' DAILY TELEGRAPH - The Theory of Everything: The Origin and Fate of the Universe - A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking (1989-03-01) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/302301676-brief-answers-to-the-big-questions-b-pb](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/302301676-brief-answers-to-the-big-questions-b-pb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
