What a Story
Stephen William Hawking, a well-known scientist from Oxford, studied
physics at Oxford University. When he was 21 and was doing studies on the
universe at Cambridge University, the doctors found he had a neuro motor
problem. Later, his problem got worse but he wanted to finish his studies.
He thought he was going to live only a few months because most people like
him only live for 18 months after diagnosis. In 1985, he had an operation
and lost his ability to speak. At first, he could talk by spelling words moving
his eyes when someone showed him a letter. Now he can choose words from
a computer screem with a switch.
In 1988, his first book, which was about the universe, was very popular, but many people did not
finish it because it was difficult to understand. In 2005, he wrote a simple version called a brief
History of time.
“Before I got ill, my life was boring,” he says. But then he had dreams about giving something
good to the world, so he began to improve his work and now we can understand the universe
better. He says his success comes from the help of his wife and children, other people, and
organizations. Now, Hawking works as a Lucasian Professor of mathematics at the University of
Cambridge, a job that Newton also had in 1663.
