The arrow of time refers to the curious asymmetry that
distinguishes the future from the past. Reversing the Arrow of Time
argues that there is an intimate link between the symmetries of
'time itself' and time reversal symmetry in physical theories,
which has wide-ranging implications for both physics and its
philosophy. This link helps to clarify how we can learn about the
symmetries of our world; how to understand the relationship between
symmetries and what is real, and how to overcome pervasive
illusions about the direction of time. Roberts explains the
significance of time reversal in a way that intertwines physics and
philosophy, to establish what the arrow of time means and how we
can come to know it. This book is both mathematically and
philosophically rigorous yet remains accessible to advanced
undergraduates in physics and philosophy of physics. This title is
also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
