history: Can you tell me anything about Stephen Hawking?
knowledge: Stephen William Hawking, ( born 8 January 1942) is an English theoretical physicist, cosmologist, author and Director of Research at the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology within the University of Cambridge.
response: Stephen Hawking was a theoretical physicist and cosmologist, as well as an author. He was Director of Research at the University of Cambridge in their Centre for Theoretical Cosmology.

Stephen Hawking was a theoretical physicist and cosmologist, as well as an author. He was Director of Research at the University of Cambridge in their Centre for Theoretical Cosmology.
You said he was an author. Can you tell me which books he wrote?
knowledge: The authors of the book point out that a Unified Field Theory (a theory, based on an early model of the universe, proposed by Albert Einstein and other physicists) may not exist.
response: I don't know the title, but in one book a co-author claimed that Unified Field Theory, as proposed by Einstein and others, might not exist.

Can you tell me anything else about his discoveries or theories?
knowledge: Hawking was the first to set out a theory of cosmology explained by a union of the general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics.
response: So, Hawking was the first person in history to put into the world a theory of cosmology that was underpinned by a union of general theory of relatively and quantum mechanics.

I know nothing about quantum mechanics. Can you tell me something else about that?
knowledge: Quantum mechanics (QM; also known as quantum physics or quantum theory), including quantum field theory, is a fundamental theory in physics which describes nature at the smallest scales of energy levels of atoms and subatomic particles.
response: Absolutely! Quantum Mechanics is one of the fundamental theories of physics. It deals with nature at the smallest energy-level scales of atoms and of subatomic particles.

Wow. That does sound complicated. What other fields of physics are there?
knowledge: Classical physics refers to theories of physics that predate modern, more complete, or more widely applicable theories.
response: Well, there's classical physics. That involves theories that predate modern theories, which are more complete or apply more widely.
