Time Reborn: From the Crisis in Physics to the Future of the Universe"If you are looking for a bracing alternative vision of physics built from the ground up, Smolin's Time Reborn will take you to the mountaintop." NPR What is time? It's the sort of question we rarely ask because it seems so obvious. And yet, to a physicist, time is simply a human construct and an illusion. If you could somehow get outside the universe and observe it from there, you would see that every moment has always existed and always will. Lee
"If you are looking for a bracing alternative vision of physics built from the ground up, Smolin's Time Reborn will take you to the mountaintop." -- NPR
What is time? It's the sort of question we rarely ask because it seems so obvious. And yet, to a physicist, time is simply a human construct and an illusion. If you could somehow get outside the universe and observe it from there, you would see that every moment has always existed and always will. Lee Smolin disagrees, and in Time Reborn he lays out the case why. Developments in physics and cosmology point toward the reality of time and the openness of the future. Smolin's groundbreaking theory postulates that physical laws can evolve over time and the future is not yet determined. Newton's fundamental laws may not remain so fundamental. Time Reborn serves as a popular primer and investigation of time, both what it is and how the true nature of it impacts our world. "He challenges not only Einstein's relativity, but also the very notion of natural laws as immutable truths." -- Economist "One of the essential books of the twenty-first century . . . Smolin provides a much-needed dose of clarity about time, with implications that go far beyond physics to economics, politics, and personal philosophy." -- Jaron Lanier, author of You Are Not a GadgetBinding Type: Paperback

The most amazing blanket EVER!!!
I just got this yesterday and I’m obsessed already. It’s the softest thing I’ve ever touched. The reverse side is also a super soft velour-like feel. I got the Marble Charcoal Grey in 60x80. It looks exactly like the photos and it’s truly a bubble design too. Looks so good draped across my bed.
And it’s HEAVY! Literally feels like a weighted blanket on top of being unbelievably soft and cozy. Now I want to get the largest size for even more heavy, snuggly bliss. I slept with it last night along with my normal blanket and I fell asleep much quicker than usual.
It does shed a bit on my black clothes but I don’t even care lol. The packaging it arrives in makes it wonderfully gift-able and also lets you know it’s a women-owned company. Didn’t arrive with any bad smells either. All the stitching is immaculate, really everything about this blanket is.
I got it on a Black Friday deal for $20% off at $51, it’s worth every penny and feels like a steal to be honest. The quality is unmatched. I’ll have to refrain from buying every single color!

Worth every penny
Color: Ivory White, Size: 90"x90"
This blanket is so soft and comforting, I just love it! It arrived sealed in a plastic bag and fluffed up instantly, I briefly put it in the dryer on low and it came out absolutely perfect. There was no odd smell, no loose threads, it was very well made and looks so inviting on my bed! Definitely a great buy that will keep you warm.

Soft and comfortable. Quality leather nsckrd. Genuine sheepskin. No off odors. I'm skinny and not on tailbone. Hoping this helps. The grey tipped is more of a bluish gray. Pretty but not s true gray.
