He held, until 2009, the Lucasian Chair of Mathematics once held by Newton at the University of Cambridge, and was awarded the Prince of Asturias Award for Concord in 1989. Universally recognized as one of the greatest theoretical physicists in the world, Professor Hawking has written, despite his severe physical limitations, dozens of articles that together represent a contribution to science that we are still not able to properly assess. His first popular science book, A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes (Critica, 1988) and The Universe in a Nutshell (Critica, 2002), are followed by A Briefer History of Time—written with Leonard Mlodinow—and the anthologies On the Shoulders of Giants: The Great Works of Physics and Astronomy (Critica 2003), the illustrated edition of the latter (Critica 2004), God Created the Numbers: The Mathematical Discoveries that Changed History (Critica 2006) and The Grand Design: The Great Works of Albert Einstein (Critica, 2008)
