Carlo Rovelli, an Italian theoretical physicist, is the head of the quantum gravity group at the Centre de Physique Théorique of Aix-Marseille Université. He is one of the founders of the loop quantum gravity theory and author of the international bestseller Seven Brief Lessons on Physics, Reality Is Not What It Seems, and the forthcoming The Order of Time. Rovelli lives in Marseille, France.
The bestselling author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics takes us on an enchanting, consoling journey to discover the meaning of time
'We are time. We are this space, this clearing opened by the traces of memory inside the connections between our neurons. We are memory. We are nostalgia. We are longing for a future that will not come.'
Time is a mystery that does not cease to puzzle us. Philosophers, artists and poets have long explored its meaning while scientists have found that its structure is different from the simple intuition we have of it. From Boltzmann to quantum theory, from Einstein to loop quantum gravity, our understanding of time has been undergoing radical transformations. Time flows at a different speed in different places, the past and the future differ far less than we might think, and the very notion of the present evaporates in the vast universe.
With his extraordinary charm and sense of wonder, bringing together science, philosophy and art, Carlo Rovelli unravels this mystery. Enlightening and consoling, The Order of Time shows that to understand ourselves we need to reflect on time -- and to understand time we need to reflect on ourselves.
干货很多,刷新了我的认知。这里简单罗列几条印象比较深刻的: ①在不同地方,时间有着不同的节奏,在此处和在彼处的流逝并不相同。比如在海拔高的地方时间流逝得更快,人也衰老得快些。物体会下落,是因为在较低的位置,时间变慢了,如果在流逝速度一致的地方,比如星际空间物...
評分 評分文字真的很美也很哲學 其實寫的很簡單瞭可是我還是看的有點暈乎乎
评分第一部分是好的科普,第二部分有點湊字,第三部分像一個智者

评分Via Audible. 感覺沒太讀懂,值得再讀一遍
评分More on philosophy than physics...
