These 1996 and 2001 new and expanded editions of The Universe in a Nutshell and The Illustrated A Brief History of Time include new introductions, updates with more recent research, and hundreds of new and magnificently enhanced full-color illustrations.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "I loved it and highly recommend the updated and illustrated version. The illustrations helped me understand the challenging concepts. The updates include worm holes and time travel which are fascinating topics. Stephen Hawking takes such different concepts and brings them down to earth for us mere mortals. He also has a refreshing humor and modesty."; "Very good for a layman (such as myself). The illustrations help visualize the concepts Hawking describes."; "I thought these two books were absolutely fascinating looks into how our universe was created and functions, and the questions we still have about it. While being dense at some points overall it was a very entertaining read with tons of beautiful pictures and diagrams that provide even more info on the things being discussed. An amazing first Stephen Hawking read."
