Time and Chance
Book • 2001
In *Time and Chance*, David Albert delves into the fundamental tension between scientific theories and our everyday experience of time.
He provides a systematic account of statistical regularities, the Second Law of Thermodynamics, and the asymmetries in our access to past and future.
The book also explores connections between the direction of time and quantum mechanics, making it accessible to both advanced scholars and interested high school students.
