ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In The Order of Time, Carlo Rovelli explores the nature of time, challenging our intuitive understanding of it. The book dismantles the traditional concept of time as a uniform and universal flow, revealing how modern physics has fragmented it into a complex, observer-dependent phenomenon. The author embarks on a journey to reconstruct time from a world without it, delving into concepts like entropy, thermal time, and indexicality to show how our experience of time emerges from our limited perspective and interaction with the universe. The narrative weaves together physics, philosophy, and literature, inviting readers to question the very essence of time and its profound connection to human consciousness.
