Dit boek bevat de tekst van een serie lezingen die in 1985 gehouden werd in Oxford. Thema: de tijd, en met name de problematiek van de tijd zoals die speelt in de moderne thermodynamica, de kosmologie en de quantummechanica. Die problematiek is uitermate gecompliceerd, en voor niet-deskundigen moeilijk te begrijpen. Des te groter is de prestatie van de acht auteurs, allen deskundigen van topniveau, die erin geslaagd zijn dit terrein toegankelijk te maken voor leken, helder en boeiend. Het boek is niet eenvoudig, maar het vereist slechts weinig natuurkundige voorkennis. Het bevat een register en een bibliografie. Vergelijkbare boeken over de tijd zijn er genoeg, maar niet van dit niveau en deze helderheid. (NBD|Biblion recensie, Drs. D.G. van der Steen.)
