Well, this book is basically a part of Cosmology field, where all is related to the study of the universe, originally written by the most renowed physicist, Stephen Hawking.
Yet again, this book will shed some of the light on the most popular questions about the "intricacy of the universe" that had been posed for years over n' over again, or even centuaries.

Thanks, Actually I read a brief history of time by the same author and I really liked it, a lot of information and the writing was simple, he wrote it for all people, not just people with a scientific background. What about this one?

My pleasure!
Sadly, still haven't finished the book yet, that u mentioned.
Sorry, you mean this book that I just posted here?

I was asking about the book you're reading big questios...

Yes, same as your guess.
It's one of his latest projects, pretty short and simple to grasp, as well as I mentioned in the description above.
It tackles the worries of all humanity's concerns to the future, as it collects the scientific thoughts and evidence-based conclusions. Sounds impressive,doesn't it?

PS: If you're intended to read it, I'd highly advice you to be careful
reason being is, this book contains a lot more atheistical beliefs

Thank you, yes you're right about atheist beliefs, even though i like to read thier thought, even if they are frightening me :)

I have also read brief history of time. It was okay and I didn't like it that much. I think he failed to simplify some concepts. I've read the book like two years ago and the only thing I remember from it is the arrow of time ( probably my best in the book). As for the book, answers to big questions, I haven't read it. I hope you enjoy it!

@kokobatsu I didn't have any information about cosmolgy and astronomy before reading brief history of time, so that's why i liked the book, it opens my eyes on a new world :), beside i don't think that it's easy to convert a math based science to words :)

Just want to spice some things up:
The ten "big questions" that are considered include: Is there a God? How did it all begin? What is inside a black hole? Can we predict the future? Is time travel possible? Will we survive on Earth? Is there other intelligent life in the universe? Should we colonise space? Will artificial intelligence outsmart us? How do we shape the future?
His answers to the "Big Questions" illustrate his belief in the rationality of nature and on our ability to uncover all its secrets
Moreover, bear in mind that his main concern in this book is not physics. It's humanity and its collective future, also he stated many of today's challenges, including the biggest threat to the planet ( global warming, climate change, asteroid collision like the one that wiped out the dinosaurs 66 million years ago...etc)

I think it's a great book then. I would read it whenever I'm free

I am glad you enjoyed it and it did open my eyes too to some stuff but not to the instinct that I thought it would. I don't know, sometimes I shouldn't put my expectations too high in order not to be disappointed.

kokobatsu you have to!
I'm quite fond on this book.

PS: Once again If you're intended to read it, I'd highly advise you to be careful, reason being is, this book contains a lot more atheistical beliefs.

@kokobatsu, Thanks, yeah sometimes when you have high expectations for something it disappoints you.
I don't know if it is just me but I like the part that talks about Stephen Hawking personal life , how genetic and home education could give you a great scientist like him ( if you want to raise your son/daughter to be something important in the future don't give him a water pistole or barby to play with , just like Stephen let him make firework at home xD), besides how true love could give hope to continue living !

Did you read Cosmos by Carl sagan or not?

@ ����î�� , Interesting I am gonna add it to my Tbr book list. And about the atheistic questions, I think we should get out of our comfort zone to know more, to be true believers not just because we were born and raised in an Islamic environment. I read a nice saying in " و هكذا إهتديت" novel, if you truly search for god "Allah" he will find you first!

@ Hamza Then you asked it ;)
Will give it a go any time soon!
Fact of the matter i'm an agnostic believer( not entirely true due that i'm roughly nearer to atheism approach) still flat out doing a research of it...but to be perfectly honest, I'm trying best possible to be flexible when unpredictable things happen in the future.

@ ����î��, وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ رَبِّ أَرِنِي كَيْفَ تُحْيِي الْمَوْتَىٰ ۖ قَالَ أَوَلَمْ تُؤْمِن ۖ قَالَ بَلَىٰ وَلَٰكِن لِّيَطْمَئِنَّ قَلْبِي ۖ , I think the more you know the more peaceful you will be, but in a careful way like you said, we don't want to go in the other direction xD

@ Hamza Hold on...what I meant by "careful way", here i've to admit for which I did it for a good purpose.
As I quite know how it seems for others (believers), it might fit for some or not...

@ Hamza "because we were born and raised in an Islamic environment". Once more I guarantee the way it meant to be!
Yes, we should deal with it no matter the consequences, otherwise we'd be dead, we're lethal entities anyhow x))
In fact, i was Ex-Muslim but i had a sudden impulse to quit reason being, is that I had perceived that the Islamic world is too much obsessed with centrality of tradition to think afresh, Idk how to explain it, but hope u got it righly what i'm pointing here..

@ Nail, i am a believer and I believe that islam is the true religion and allah is the true god, and I want to deal with those questions because i know for sure that there is an answer for all of them that we should know.
Respectfully i think that building your decision on " islamic world behaviors" is wrong, what muslims did or not doesn't necessary means that it reflect islam doctrine.And when judgment day comes everyone stand alone not as a family not as society, Alone. I hope that you'll find your way back to islam soon, we don't want to lose a reader they are rare xD

dont' worry , came here too 'cause needless to say that i'm lonely, lol.
YES, exactly what we're thinkin' abt, 'cause these questions always been almost rhetorical and still, and i'm pretty sure whatever enquiries you might have will be answered

Thanks

I've always wanted to read Stephen's books, but I never found the right time x). I hope someday I could get myself to reading them!
Thank you for you recommendation!

My pleasure!

I think I am familiar with atheistic thoughts so I will be fine

This conversation is heading in an expected direction ( I was replying to a msg before reading the other.
@Nail agnostic is better than being an extremist on either way ( Believers or Atheists).

Hopefully!
It's a matter of FAITH after all...
