Winner of Audiobook of the entire year on the Specsavers National Reserve Awards 2018

Penguin presents the audio edition of The Order of your time by Carlo Rovelli, read by Benedict Cumberbatch.

The bestselling writer of Seven Short Lessons on Physics takes us with an enchanting journey to discover the meaning of time

Time is a mystery that will not cease to puzzle us. Philosophers, performers and poets have long explored its meaning while scientists have got discovered that its structure is different from the easy about The Order of your time intuition we’ve of it. From Boltzmann to quantum theory, from Einstein to loop quantum gravity, our knowledge of time has been undergoing radical transformations. Time flows at a different speed in different areas, days gone by and the near future differ much less than we might think, and the very notion of the present evaporates in the huge universe.

With his extraordinary charm and sense of wonder, combining science, philosophy and art, Carlo Rovelli unravels this mystery, inviting us to imagine a world where time is within us and we aren’t in time.
