Time Facts by Eleanor Hawking

Time Facts explores the multifaceted nature of time, bridging historical perspectives with modern physics, including relativity. It simplifies complex concepts, making the science behind time accessible to a broad audience. The book uniquely emphasizes time's interconnectedness with space and gravity, revealing how these elements shape our universe. One intriguing aspect discussed is time dilation, where time's passage varies depending on speed and gravity. The book progresses logically, starting with core physics concepts like Special and General Relativity. It then examines theoretical possibilities of time travel, including paradoxes and potential resolutions, before concluding with time's impact on daily life, such as its perception and role in technology. Time Facts aims not just to inform but to inspire critical thinking about reality and the potential for manipulating time, even if only in theory.
