Sobre IBD

In the world about us, the past is distinctly different from the future. More precisely, we say that the processes going on in the world about us are asymmetric in time, or display an arrow of time. Yet this manifest fact of our experience is particularly difficult to explain in terms of the fundamental laws of physics. Newton’s laws, quantum mechanics, electro-magnetism, Einstein’s theory of gravity, etc., make no distinction between past and future -- they are time-symmetric.Reconciliation of these profoundly conflicting facts is the topic of this volume. It is an interdisciplinary survey of the variety of interconnected phenomena defining arrows of time, and their possible explanations in terms of underlying time-symmetric laws of physics.

  • Multidimensional Time
    Robert Kersten
    Time is a concept we all use every day to measure the passage of our days and lives without giving it much thought. Physics inherently does not limit time to going forward only, but it is treated that way since we do not understand time any other way.  Could time have multidimensions, just like space has?   What would it mean to move in multidimensional time?  This book on mult...

  • It’s About Time
    N. David Mermin
    In It’s About Time, N. David Mermin asserts that relativity ought to be an important part of everyone’s education--after all, it is largely about time, a subject with which all are familiar. The book reveals that some of our most intuitive notions about time are shockingly wrong, and that the real nature of time discovered by Einstein can be rigorously explained without advance...
