"Then suddenly, toward the end of my second year of research, things picked up. My disease wasn't progressing much, and my work all fell into place, and I began to get somewhere."
Turning 60 seemed to be reaching a summit for Hawking, who has two sons and a daughter.
"He has been very excited about it," said Hawking's younger son, Tim, 22, who is studying French and Spanish at Exeter University. "60 years, he has done a good job."
