This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. In The Order of Time, Carlo Rovelli invites readers on an exploration of one of the most profound and elusive mysteries in both physics and philosophy: the nature of time. Through lyrical prose, Rovelli tackles questions that have puzzled humanity for centuries—why do we remember the past but not the future, and what does it mean for time to "flow"? At its core, the book challenges our conventional understanding of time as a steady, unchanging force, measured by clocks and ticking away from past to future. Rovelli begins by tearing down our traditional assumptions about time, revealing a universe where time at the most fundamental level doesn’t behave as we expect. In this strange and perplexing universe, time disappears, and the laws of quantum gravity offer a framework to understand the resulting landscape—a world where time doesn’t flow in the way we perceive it. Through these scientific insights, Rovelli invites readers to rethink how we experience time, suggesting that our sense of its flow is not a universal constant but instead shaped by our brain, emotions, and personal perspective. Drawing on a rich blend of philosophy, literature, and scientific theory, The Order of Time offers a captivating investigation into the nature of time, making complex concepts accessible without sacrificing their depth. Rovelli presents a view of time not as an objective feature of the physical universe, but as something intrinsically tied to human consciousness. In doing so, he provides a novel and profoundly intelligent perspective on a subject that continues to elude full understanding, inviting us to question our most basic assumptions about reality.
