What is Time? Assuming no prior specialized knowledge by the
reader, the book raises specific, hitherto overlooked questions
about how time works, such as how and why anyone can be made to be,
at the very same instant, simultaneous with events that are
actually days apart. It examines abiding issues in the physics of
time or at its periphery which still elude a full explanation such
as delayed choice experiments, the brain's perception of time
during saccadic masking, and more and suggests that these phenomena
can only exist because they ultimately obey applicable mathematics,
thereby agreeing with a modern view that the universe and
everything within it, including the mind, are ultimately
mathematical structures. It delves into how a number of conundrums,
such as the weak Anthropic Principle, could be resolved, and how
such resolutions could be tested experimentally. All its various
threads converge towards a same new vision of the ultimate essence
of time, seen as a side effect from a deeper reality.
