Hawking's life plus his science submitted by Susan4Pax -prev. sueij- on June 17, 2020, 8:46pm This graphic novel biography of Hawking does an excellent job balancing the life of the man with the foundations of his science. It’s not a book that can be breezed through if you want to absorb the science part (something people often expect of graphic novels), but is genuinely meant to teach Hawking’s foundational ideas. Wonderfully done, and an excellent addition to any school or personal library for people who love to read and learn!
