In it Hawking explains to the general public various matters relating to the work of Lucasian professors, such as GÃÆ'ödel and P-brane Unconformity Theory (part of superstring theory in quantum mechanics). He recounts the history and principles of modern physics. He sought to "combine Einstein's General Theory of Relativity and Richard Feynman's idea of ââsome history to be a complete integrated theory that would explain everything that happens in the universe."
