Overview of The Grand Design
Stephen Hawking's controversial masterpiece challenges God's role in creation, arguing physics alone explains our universe's birth. Sparking fierce scientific debate and religious backlash, this mind-bending journey through M-theory asks: What if everything we know about existence is fundamentally wrong?

Why Everything Exists-And Why We're Here to Ask
What if I told you the universe doesn't need a creator? That the most profound cosmic mystery-why there's something rather than nothing-has an answer rooted not in theology but in physics? Stephen Hawking's final intellectual gift challenges everything we thought we knew about existence itself. Standing at the intersection of quantum mechanics, relativity, and cosmology, this work dares to answer the ultimate question: Why does the universe exist? The answer turns out to be both simpler and stranger than anyone imagined. We live in a self-creating cosmos where the laws of physics themselves eliminate the need for a divine architect. Before you dismiss this as scientific arrogance, consider that the evidence comes from the same principles that power your smartphone and predict planetary orbits with breathtaking precision. For most of human history, we explained the unexplainable through stories. Vikings believed wolves devoured the sun during eclipses. But around 2,600 years ago, something remarkable happened in ancient Greece. Thales of Miletus proposed a radical idea: nature follows consistent principles we can understand. This shift from supernatural to natural explanations represents humanity's greatest intellectual leap. The timing is striking. Humans evolved 200,000 years ago, yet scientific thinking emerged only 2,500 years ago-a blink in evolutionary time.
