- NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“[Hawking] sprinkles his explanations with a wry sense of humor and a keen awareness that the sciences today delve not only into the far reaches of the cosmos, but into the inner philosophical world as well.”—The New York Times Book Review
Thirteen extraordinary essays shed new light on the mystery of the universe—and on one of the most brilliant thinkers of our time.
In his phenomenal bestseller A Brief History of Time, Stephen Hawking literally transformed the way we think about physics, the universe, reality itself. In these thirteen essays and one remarkable extended interview, the man widely regarded as the most brilliant theoretical physicist since Einstein returns to reveal an amazing array of possibilities for understanding our universe.
Building on his earlier work, Hawking discusses imaginary time, how black holes can give birth to baby universes, and scientists’ efforts to find a complete unified theory that would predict everything in the universe. With his characteristic mastery of language, his sense of humor and commitment to plain speaking, Stephen Hawking invites us to know him better—and to share his passion for the voyage of intellect and imagination that has opened new ways to understanding the very nature of the cosmos. -

The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity
Rs. 3,490.00or 3 X Rs.1,163.33 withRead moreDavid Graeber, David Wengrow
A boldly ambitious work … entertaining and thought-provoking … an impressively large undertaking that succeeds in making us reconsider not just the remote past but also the too-close-to-see present, as well as the common thread that is our shifting and elusive nature. — Andrew Anthony ― Observer
What a gift … Graeber and Wengrow offer a history of the past 30,000 years that is not only wildly different from anything we’re used to, but also far more interesting: textured, surprising, paradoxical, inspiring. — William Deresiewicz ― The Atlantic
Iconoclastic and irreverent … an exhilarating read … As we seek new, sustainable ways to organise our world, we need to understand the full range of ways our ancestors thought and lived. And we must certainly question conventional versions of our history which we have accepted, unexamined, for far too long. — David Priestland ― The Guardian
Pacey and potentially revolutionary … This is more than an argument about the past, it is about the human condition in the present. — Bryan Appleyard ― Sunday Times
A fascinating, radical, and playful entry into a seemingly exhaustively well-trodden genre, the grand evolutionary history of humanity. It seeks nothing less than to completely upend the terms on which the Standard Narrative rests … erudite, compelling, generative, and frequently remarkably funny … once you start thinking like Graeber and Wengrow, it’s difficult to stop. — Emily M. Kern ― Boston Review
A spectacular, flashy and ground-breaking retelling of human history, blazing with iconoclastic rebuttals to conventional wisdom. Full of fresh thinking, it’s a pleasure to read and offers a bracing challenge on every page. — Simon Sebag Montefiore ― BBC History

Apollo 11: The Inside Story
Rs. 2,790.00or 3 X Rs.930.00 withRead moreDavid Whitehouse
‘Fast-paced and tremendously readable … What makes this book really stand out from other Apollo based books is the inclusion of long quotes from interviews with astronauts such as John Glenn (the first American to orbit Earth), Eugene Cernan (the last man to walk on the Moon) and, of course, Neil Armstrong himself.’ ***** Book of the Month ― BBC Sky at Night magazine
The book is at its most successful when Whitehouse gets out of the way of its protagonists, letting the astronauts and cosmonauts offer their own verbatim accounts of their often perilous – and occasionally fatal – missions. The real strength of this book is its tribute to the human qualities of these men – and they are all men, with the exception of the brief but gripping story of one female cosmonaut – who were willing to sacrifice so much. ― The Irish News
In the most authoritative book ever written about Apollo, David Whitehouse reveals the true drama behind the mission, telling the story in the words of those who took part based around exclusive interviews with the key players … [An] enthralling book ― All About Space
David Whitehouse’s masterly narration of what he calls ‘the inside story’ is profoundly gratifying. –– The Spectator
