Book Information

Does time really flow, or is that simply an illusion? Did time have a beginning? What does it mean to say that time has a direction? Do space and time really exist, or are they simply the constructions of our minds? Robin Le Poidevin provides a clear, witty, and stimulating introduction to these deep questions, and many other mind-boggling puzzles and paradoxes. No prior knowledge of philosophy is required to enjoy this book. The universe might seem very different after reading it.
