Synopsis

A distinguished physicist considers the emotive significance of time alongside its treatment in mechanics, thermodynamics and microstatistics, macrostatistics, and quantum physics. Using analytic methods drawn from scientific philosophy, the discussion also addresses probability, quantum mechanics, the theory of relativity and causality.

Positioned within science, mathematics and engineering, this is suited to readers looking for a philosophically informed approach to foundational questions in physics.
