Dans ses "Sept brèves leçons de physique", Carlo Rovelli confiait : qu'une question avait guidé sa vie de chercheur : la nature du temps. Se hissant sur les épaules d'Isaac Newton, d'Albert Einstein, de Stephen Hawking et de bien d'autres, il nous livre enfin ses découvertes dans ce livre majeur. Le temps est au cœur d'un étrange mystère. Tel un flocon de neige qui fond lorsqu'on s'en saisit, il s'est progressivement délité sous les assauts de la science : on sait dorénavant que le temps s'écoule plus lentement en plaine qu'en altitude.

Description

Winner of the Specsavers Audiobook of the Year 2018. 

Penguin presents the audio edition of The Order of Time by Carlo Rovelli. The best-selling author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics takes us on an enchanting journey to discover the meaning of time. 

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 different speeds 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, inviting us to imagine a world where time is in us and we are not in time.

What a joy

I always wonder what is “Time”? This book provide an explanation based on previous scientific knowledge and I enjoy reading it.

The voice of Benedict Cumberbatch is just like a massage to my ears. What else can I say?

Lovely Book about Time and its Order

Now I understand that time is far more complex than we think it to be. For long I've held the sense that we always living in the past; every action happens in the past, that the only thing ever in the present is the thoughts we originate. It's really a nice book and I enjoyed listening to it

Enjoyable, intriguiging read on time.

Loved the performance of Benedict Cumberbatch. Warm voice and nice rhythm.

Refreshing combination of physics and poetry.

Not a technical book, rather a nice and thought-provoking read with interesting views and theories on time.

Mundane linguistic insights coupled with a good description of our current understanding of the universe.

Mundane linguistic insights coupled with a good description of our current understanding of the universe. Many great references, poems and a timeline of our understanding of time in relation to thermodynamics. Field theory is a little glossed over. The worst part is the recurrence of the linguistic discussion, you can tell the author has a great frustration with the sort of questions people ask, but the faculties to help re-evaluate them are limited to repetition.

Fails to explain what time is

I was hoping this book would explain in layman's terms, what time is according to physics. The book is in laymans terms, but explains very little. There were also too many quotes from historical, religious and mythological characters and the authors own life philosophy instead of attempts to explain what time is.

Almost lyrical explanation of the mystery of time.

I think they gave the time stone to the right guy. :D
Great book, though.

Very interesting, but you need to concentrate well

... to be able to follow. Maybe it's not an ideal fit for an Audiobook but Benedict Cumberbatch's performance is very nice.

Hochinteressant

Ein überaus interessantes Hörbuch für alle am Thema Interessierten (physikalische Vorbildung schadet nicht!), gesprochen von einem Sprecher mit sehr angenehmer Stimme (bekannter Schauspieler - Sherlock). Für mich: Empfehlenswert!

Great!

This is probably the best book about time I've ever listened to.
Also, every book should always be narrated by Benedikt Cumberbatch.
Incredible performance!
