RE: Stephen Hawking dies at age 76. This is a sad day and a great loss.
He skyrocketed to public prominence in 1988, when he published his first general-audience book, A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes. The cosmology treatise has sold approximately 10 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling science books of all time.
He was a great scientist and an extraordinary man whose work and legacy will live on for many years.
