ABOUT THIS BOOK

‘I hope to inspire people around the world to look up at the stars and not down at their feet.’
Stephen Hawking faced the gravest odds in life with resilience and an unshakable belief in himself. Diagnosed at the fragile age of twenty-one with a debilitating and life-threatening disease, Hawking established himself as a legend in the field of cosmology. But many wonder how it is possible that a man could achieve immense success in spite of unimaginable suffering.

Bestselling author Virender Kapoor shows how Hawking lived his life—an unusually difficult
one—to not only achieve remarkable feats as an individual, but also contributed immensely to
the discipline of physics and in understanding our unique place in the world.

The seventh book in the series, Resilience: The Hawking Way is a must-read for anyone who is
highly ambitious and hence, must overcome insurmountable challenges in the journey to achieve
their dreams.
