A review by jkenna1990
Hawking by Jim Ottaviani

2.0

This book was interesting. I think that's the best thing I can say about it. The first half was absolute gibberish (unless you study physics) with little bits of Hawking's life sprinkled in. The second half of the book is much better. There was less math/science and more about the actual man behind all of it. I realize this book is not for me but there were other reasons for this rating. I found multiple spelling errors throughout the book that were rather distracting. If you are a science buff then this book will be great for you. If you are looking for a book on Hawking's life then look elsewhere. That being said I did enjoy the book once I got past the mathematics and science that confused the hell out of me.
