It is commonly held that there is no place for the 'now’ in physics, and also that the passing of time is something subjective, having to do with the way reality is experienced but not with the way reality is. Indeed, the majority of modern theoretical physicists and philosophers of physics contend that the passing of time is incompatible with modern physical theory, and excluded in a fundamental description of physical reality. This book provides a forceful rebuttal of such claims. In successive chapters the author explains the historical precedents of the modern opposition to time flow, giving careful expositions of matters relevant to becoming in classical physics, the special and general theories of relativity, and quantum theory, without presupposing prior expertise in these subjects. Analysing the arguments of thinkers ranging from Aristotle, Russell, and Bergson to the proponents of quantum gravity, he contends that the passage of time, understood as a local becoming of events out of those in their past at varying rates, is not only compatible with the theories of modern physics, but implicit in them.

Why does time seem to flow in one direction? Can we influence the past? Is only the present real? Does relativity conflict with our common understanding of time? Could science do away with time? These questions and others about time are among the most puzzling problems in philosophy and science. In this exciting collection of original articles, eminent philosophers propose novel answers to these and other questions. Based on the latest research in philosophy and physics, these essays will be enjoyable to anyone with a speculative turn of mind.

At the Edge of Time is a startling new addition to the body of literature called reality theory. Donald W. Jarrell contends that there are two realities, one a virtual reality of time and space and a second reality beyond time and space. Many philosophers and physicists agree that time is only an illusion. The author takes this notion one quantum leap forward, using findings of quantum mechanics and neuroimaging to show that both time and our everyday world are illusions, that what we experience as time and space is an impenetrably real virtual reality. It may seem not appropriately scientific to take a theory of reality—the dual reality theory—and apply it to other areas of our world, as the author does, before the theory has been proven by experiment. Upon reading the book, it will be clear that, as with the hypotheses of dark energy and dark matter, it is not possible to definitively prove or disprove the theory; the universal laws of physics very effectively prevent this. The author, therefore, has chosen to turn that usual approach on its head. If the dual reality theory is correct, it should serve to explain our world in ways that allow us to understand, to change, and to accurately predict events. And these changes and predictions are themselves subject to testing by experiment (either of the laboratory or thought variety). The theory has been used, in At the Edge of Time, to explain phenomena such as time, wave function collapse, the space-traveling-twin saga, the many-worlds interpretation, Bell's theorem, particles in superposition, the holographic universe, and gravity. The author also has used the theory to explain some phenomena which scientists are frequently reluctant to write about, such as dreams and hypnosis. These were included because the theory should, if correct, shed light on these phenomena as well. The dual reality theory, in the opinion of the author, will enable the reader to understand phenomena that were opaque or not fully explained using other theories. Whether the theory does in fact serve this purpose is for readers to decide.

Some scientists believe that time is physical such as matter and other scientists believe that time is an imagination such as the numbers 1, 2, and 3. Did we invent time or was time here in the universe before we came to existence? This book answers this question. This book also tells the stories of my encounters of physics Nobel laureates such as I.I Rabi, T.D. Lee, Murray Gell-Mann, James Rainwater. and more.
