About Book

The Order of Time

Why do we remember the past but not the future? What does it mean when time "passes"? Do we exist within time, or does time exist within us? Carlo Rovere's poetic prose invites us to consider this age-old question: the nature of time.
Our intuition suggests that time is universally uniform, flowing steadily from the past to the future, measurable by clocks. Rovelli reveals a strange universe where these very properties of time collapse, and at its most fundamental level, time disappears. He teaches us that our perception of the passage of time depends on our perspective...

◆This is the new masterpiece by Italian physicist Carlo Rovelli, known as "the man who made physics sexy, the next Stephen Hawking" after his book "Seven Simple Physics Lessons".
◆The perfect fusion of physics and philosophy, exploring the amazing truth of the world in the commonplace, using poetic language and cutting-edge physics theories to explore the nature of time, subverting our common sense and intuition.
◆The audiobook, read aloud by "Doctor Strange" actor Benedict Cumberbatch, won the British National Book Award.
◆Highly recommended by more than 10 media outlets, including Time, Nature, The Guardian, New Scientist, and The New York Times.
◆Exquisite binding, same format, continuing the aesthetic design of "Seven Minimalist Physics Lessons", "Reality Is Not What You See" and "Minimalist Science Origin Lesson".
