Thinking On Paper: A Technology Podcast For Curious Minds Book Club: The Order Of Time, By Carlo Rovelli - What Is Quantum Gravity?
Welcome to book club. We're still reading the Order of Time by Carlo Rovelli. It's still warping our minds like time and space. This is The surprise episode when I forgot to tell Jeremy our special guest was a quantum physicist! And we still aren't sure what quantum gravity is. What role does quantum gravity play in time? Are they the same thing? What is granularity, and why does it mean time doesn't flow? Hell yeah! What's Planck length? Why does it matter... Superposition of electrons, fine... but superposition of time? The past present and future are just probabilities? WTF? Please enjoy the show as much as we did. =============================== Praise For The Order Of Time Philip Pullman: "Wonderful... Time is something we know about instinctively, here Carlo shows how profoundly strange it is." John Banville: "Physics has found its poet." Tom Whipple: "An elegantly concise primer that makes theoretical physics intelligible stunningly written." ===============================
