Twenty years after Stephen Hawking's 9-million-copy selling A Brief History of Time, pioneering theoretical physicist Sean Carroll takes our investigation into the nature of time to the next level. You can't unscramble an egg and you can't remember the future. But what if time doesn't (or didn't!) always go in the same direction? Carroll's paradigm-shifting research suggests that other universes experience time running in the opposite direction to our own. Exploring subjects from entropy and quantum mechanics to time travel and the meaning of life, Carroll presents a dazzling new view of how we came to exist.

    Think back to the checkerboards. What happened at one moment in time was influenced by what happened at the previous moment in time. But what happened at one point in “space”—the collection of squares across a single row—was completely unrelated to what happened at any other point in space at the same time

    The arrow of time is driven by an increase in entropy, which ultimately originates in the low entropy near the Big Bang, which is a period in the universe’s history when gravity is fundamentally important. We therefore need to know how entropy works in the presence of gravity

    The fact that black holes evaporate away raises a deep question: What happens to the information that went into making the hole in the first place?
