In 'The Order of Time,' Carlo Rovelli explores the concept of time, questioning our intuitive understanding of it as uniform and absolute. Rovelli delves into the nature of time as revealed by modern physics, examining how it differs from our everyday experience. He discusses how time is affected by gravity and motion, and how it emerges from the quantum structure of the universe. The book challenges conventional notions of past, present, and future, and contemplates the possibility that time may not exist as a fundamental property of the universe. Rovelli bridges the gap between complex scientific theories and accessible philosophical reflections, inviting readers to ponder the mysteries of time and its role in shaping our reality.

In this book, Dr. Vivek Murthy makes a compelling case for loneliness as a major public health concern, comparable in harm to smoking. He argues that loneliness affects not only individual health but also societal cohesion, contributing to issues such as addiction, violence, depression, and anxiety. The book is divided into sections on understanding loneliness and building more connected lives, offering strategies like spending time with loved ones, focusing on each other, embracing solitude, and helping others. Murthy draws from personal experiences, scientific research, and community examples to illustrate the negative impacts of loneliness and the healing power of human connection.
