Introduction · · · · · ·
Why do we remember the past but not the future? What does it mean for time to "pass"? Do we exist in time, or does time exist in us? Carlo Rovere uses poetic words to invite us to think about this eternal question - the nature of time.

Rovelli reveals a strange universe where the properties of time collapse one by one, and at the most fundamental level, time disappears. He tells us that our perception of the passage of time depends on our perspective...
