Time's arrows today: recent physical and philosophical work on the direction of time
While experience tells us that time flows from the past to the present and into the future, a number of philosophical and physical objections exist to this commonsense view of dynamic time.

| Zusammenfassung: | While experience tells us that time flows from the past to the present and into the future, a number of philosophical and physical objections exist to this commonsense view of dynamic time. In an attempt to make sense of this conundrum, philosophers and physicists are forced to confront fascinating questions, such as: Can effects precede causes? Can one travel in time? Can the expansion of the Universe or the process of measurement in quantum mechanics define a direction in time? In this book, researchers from both physics and philosophy attempt to answer these issues in an interesting, yet rigorous way. This fascinating book will be of interest to physicists and philosophers of science and educated general readers interested in the direction of time |

Can the expansion of the Universe or the process of measurement in quantum mechanics define a direction in time? In this book, researchers from both physics and philosophy attempt to answer these issues in an interesting, yet rigorous way. This fascinating book will be of interest to physicists and philosophers of science and educated general readers interested in the direction of time Philosophie Time / Philosophy Space and time Zeit (DE-588)4067461-7 gnd rswk-swf Zeitrichtung (DE-588)4217355-3 gnd rswk-swf Philosophie (DE-588)4045791-6 gnd rswk-swf Physik (DE-588)4045956-1 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)1071861417 Konferenzschrift 1992 Vancouver British Columbia gnd-content 2\p (DE-588)1071861417 Konferenzschrift 1992 Vancouver gnd-content Zeit (DE-588)4067461-7 s Physik (DE-588)4045956-1 s Philosophie (DE-588)4045791-6 s 3\p DE-604 Zeitrichtung (DE-588)4217355-3 s 4\p DE-604 Savitt, Steven Frederick edt 'Time's Arrows Today' Conference <1992, University of British Columbia> Sonstige oth Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-46111-5 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-59945-0 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511622861 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
