Somewhere near the heart of existence, shimmers the ethereal beauty
of the mystery of Time. Though seemingly familiar to us all, time
harbours secrets that penetrate the very deepest levels of reality,
and though we feel certain in our conviction that we're swept forth
upon the crest of its never-ending flow, with Einstein's discovery
of relativity came what is perhaps the most stunning realisation in
the entire history of scientific thought - the wondrously
breathtaking revelation that in reality, there's actually no such
thing as the passage of time... How can this extraordinary truth be
reconciled with the reality we so surely suppose to experience?
What does it mean for the very human concerns of life and death,
free will, identity, and self? What should it mean for our
philosophy? And how should it inform our world view? The search for
answers leads through the fantastical realm of quantum physics, and
the strange parallel worlds it describes, as we discover that the
answers which such questions provoke, are perhaps even more
profound than the questions themselves. Buried deep within the
riddle of time, lies the staggering beauty of the world. As we peel
back the layers to try and sneak a glimpse into eternity, we find a
light shining not only upon the nature of reality, but on the
nature of ourselves...
