Stephen Hawking
출생: January 08, 1942 – Oxford, England, United Kingdom
Stephen Hawking was a British theoretical physicist and cosmologist known for work on black holes, singularity theorems, and quantum gravity. His book A Brief History of Time brought complex science to a mass audience and sold millions of copies worldwide, making him one of the most recognized scientific communicators of the modern era.
전기 및 작가의 여정
Stephen Hawking was born on January 8, 1942, in Oxford, England, into a family that valued learning and inquiry. He studied physics at University College, Oxford, where he developed a reputation for unusual intelligence paired with a relaxed attitude toward formal study. He then moved to Cambridge for graduate work in cosmology, entering the field at a moment when questions about the origin and structure of the universe were drawing intense scientific attention. A defining turning point came in his early twenties, when he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS. Doctors expected a sharply shortened life, yet he continued his research, adapting over time to profound physical limitations while sharpening the focus and ambition of his work.
