「我們創造了宇宙，一如宇宙創造了我們。」——史蒂芬．霍金生前對《時間簡史》宇宙觀的顛覆性修正由霍金最密切的研究夥伴，宇宙學家湯瑪仕．赫托執筆，回溯他們二十年來的宇宙探索之旅，帶我們一覽這位傳奇物理學家對宇宙起源的最終思考。史蒂芬．霍金最終理論的重大轉折霍金去世之前不久，他告訴作者，是時候寫本新書了。本書就是那本新書。作者寫下他們重返並進入大霹靂的旅程，以及這趟旅程到最後如何讓霍金放棄多重宇宙的觀點，改用驚奇的新視角來思考時間起源；這個視角在精神與本質上都深具達爾文主義的色彩，並提供對偉大宇宙設計的全新理解。為什麼宇宙這麼適合生命發展？這是傳奇物理學家霍金生前最希望解釋的現象之一。二十多年來，霍金與他最親近的學生、朋友與研究夥伴赫托提出了以演化論為基礎、相當具顛覆性的宇宙起源理論：物理定律並非必然以當前的形式存在，而是隨宇宙誕生而出現，並和早期的宇宙共同演化；我們的觀測行為則是讓「萬有理論」成立的基礎。本書是一部引人入勝的宇宙探索之作。赫托以清晰深刻的筆觸描繪了霍金的學術與哲學貢獻，提出了他獨特而具前瞻性的宇宙觀。赫托融合了科學理論與科學史，深入分析了科學辯論背後的哲學動機，以簡潔清晰的文筆呈現自哥白尼、牛頓、愛因斯坦以來，物理學界如何從決定論與上帝視角，走到當代量子論、全像原理與「蟲眼視角」，讓一般讀者也能夠理解和享受這個複雜且深奧的主題。國內推薦：吳俊輝（劍橋宇宙學博士、台大教授）高涌泉（台大物理系兼任教授）超級歪SuperY（YouTuber）謝哲青（作家、旅行家、知名節目主持人）國際好評：真正讓思維拓展⋯⋯回報極大。——《泰晤士報》關於史蒂芬．霍金最重要遺產的精彩書籍。——《觀察家報》對宇宙基礎的大膽且激動人心的觀點。——《出版人週刊》我們的宇宙為何會變成現在這個樣子？一切是如何開始的？可能會如何結束？湯瑪仕．赫托與史蒂芬．霍金合作探索了這些令人震撼的問題，由獨特的視角，了解霍金是如何在面對令人生畏的生理障礙，甚至在他晚年困獸之鬥中獲得的驚人洞察力。這本極好的書籍提供了對一個非凡個體、創造過程的深入洞察，以及我們當前對宇宙的了解的範圍和限制。——馬丁．里斯勳爵，劍橋大學宇宙學和天體物理學名譽教授史蒂芬．霍金的最終理論在這本出色的易於理解的書中得到了清晰的解釋。作者湯瑪仕．赫托是霍金最親密的合作者之一，讓我們深入了解了霍金作為一位傑出的物理學家以及驚人毅力的人。
