Publisher's Synopsis
"Everything stops - nothing happens yet the eternal ticking of time is there; it follows you like a shadow with your every move. But what is this time?" Tackling topics such as free will, the existence of the universe and consciousness, this brief collection of essays/chapters provides an introduction to what physics reveals about philosophical matters and the nature of our existence. It is not complex but it provides various arguments so that YOU (the reader) can bring your own views on the subjects at matter.
It can be said that physics is the main source of premise for philosophical argument, thus in this book, you would be able to understand this symbiotic connection between the two and have a greater understanding of the universe and your existence; a new way to look at your world. "The great physicist Richard Feynman once stated that if you think you understand quantum mechanics, you do not truly understand quantum mechanics. Well, quantum mechanics is justifiably one of the most successful modern theories in the physics world, with equations and principles which we know and can apply, even to construct new technologies, yet does that mean we understand it. Quantum mechanics as well as other common ideas such as concepts of Space-Time are in fact not things, which we do not know how different entities interact with one another, with the ability for physicists to calculate effect from a certain cause, but rather focus should be drawn to the question of why?"
