Summary: How does each electron pass through two slits at the same time? It must move discontinuously...
Comment: It is a pity that Hawking only used several pages to explain the mysterious quantum world. Especially, his explanation of Feynman's path integral approach was misleading. The paths in Feynman's approach are not classical continuous paths at all, as Hawking depicted in his book. They are also quantum states.
However, Hawking's claim that each single electron must pass through two slits at the same time is right. But how does a single electron pass through two slits at the same time? It is well known that Hawking preferred many worlds theory, but he didn't refer to it in the book. In fact, it seems evident that the single electron can only pass through the two slits at the same time in a discontinuous way. Therefore, its motion must be not continuous but discontinuous. Such discontinuous motion is imaginable and comprehensible. It has actually been lucidly expounded in a recent book Quantum Motion - Unveiling the Mysterious Quantum World. A more popular introduction can be found at [..]
Once we realize that motion is discontinuous and random in reality, we may finally understand the mysterious quantum world, where an electron can pass through two slits at the same time.

Summary: save your eyes!!
Comment: This a very good way to really understand the subject, and a nice voice, with a command of the situation.

Summary: Simply Beautiful
Comment: I loved the visuals! Simply awesome for people who are afraid they cannot handle complex physics. Every diagram is important and is a must for the personal library of every science lover. I recommend this book to any parent who wants their children to have a clear understanding of modern science.

Summary: fascinating and immensely readable
Comment: In less than 200 pages of text, Dr Hawking distills some of the most difficult-to-understand concepts into something that is easy to read and understand. Not only that, he gives us amusing anecdotes that make both the theory aid the people behind the theory seem that much more accessible. Although it gets bogged down in places, it is most definately worth the read.

Summary: Stephen Hawking A brief History Of Time
Comment: An excellent book. I strongly recommend it to anyone who is trying to understand where we came from and perhaps where we are going. Trying to grasp the concept of time and space can be very difficult, Mr. Hawking helps to unravel the understanding.
