Take an exhilarating journey into the science of time, from Stonehenge to the Big Bang and beyond... The palaeolithic farmer moved through the sun-fuelled day in a radically different way to the modern office worker bound into fifteen-minute Outlook increments - but both grasped time based on the potent scientific discoveries of the age. Now, with the advent of quantum clocks, string theory, multiverses, and other breakthroughs, science is again rewriting time and our experience of it. Weaving cosmology with everyday, down-to-earth examples across the centuries, award-winning physicist and science writer Adam Frank presents a dazzling, provocative exploration of how time passes through our lives - and what cutting-edge physics has in store for us next.
