520 $a"What is time? This deceptively simple question actually shapes our thinking about everything, with huge implications for the world -- from climate change to the economic crises. In this revolutionary book, Lee Smolin, of the foremost thinkers and theoretical physicists, argues that understanding the real nature of time is our key to unravelling the mysteries cosmologists andphysicists face, from the Big Bang to the future of our universe."--Publisher.
