Hawking strikes again

From an email I got from Amazon: "In the 17 years since the publication of "A Brief History of Time," new data from particle physics and observational astronomy have shed light on efforts to find a Grand Unified Theory of Everything that Hawking and Mlodinow use to enhance and update their answers to basic questions about the universe: where it's going and how it began." Spiffy, eh? Not so sure on the title, though--"A Briefer History of Time"? Moderately clever, I suppose. It's due out on the 27th. If you preorder, you can save 34% (no, I don't work for Amazon, I just want my readers to save a cool 850 pennies).
