Steven Hawking raised profound issues concerning the loss of information in black hole evaporation and the consistency of quantum mechanics in a world with gravity. 606 $aBlack holes (Astronomy) 606 $aBlack holes (Astronomy) 606 $aHolography 606 $aString models 606 $aAstronomy & Astrophysics$2HILCC 606 $aPhysical Sciences & Mathematics$2HILCC 606 $aAstrophysics$2HILCC 615 4$aBlack holes (Astronomy). 615 0$aBlack holes (Astronomy) 615 0$aHolography 615 0$aString models 615 7$aAstronomy & Astrophysics 615 7$aPhysical Sciences & Mathematics 615 7$aAstrophysics 676 $a523.8875 700 $aSusskind$b Leonard$0447974 701 $aLindesay$b James$0786076 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783721503321 996 $aAn Introduction to Black Holes, Information and the String Theory Revolution$93773187 997 $aUNINA
