Time is a mystery that does not cease to puzzle us. Philosophers, artists and poets have long explored its meaning while scientists have found that its structure is different from the simple intuition we have of it. From Boltzmann to quantum theory, from Einstein to loop quantum gravity, our understanding of time has been undergoing radical transformations. Time flows at a different speed in different places, the past and the future differ far less than we might think, and the very notion of the present evaporates in the vast universe. With his extraordinary charm and sense of wonder, bringing together science, art and philosophy, Carlo Rovelli unravels this mystery, inviting us to imagine a world where time is in us and we are not in time.

The instant Sunday Times bestseller -- a beautiful story of rebellion and science''A triumph. . . We are left in a world that is not disenchanted by science, but even more magical'' Financial TimesIn June 1925, twenty-three-year-old Werner Heisenberg, suffering from hay fever, had retreated to the treeless, wind-battered island of Helgoland in the North Sea in order to think. Walking all night, by dawn he had wrestled with an idea that would transform the whole of science and our very conception of the world.In Helgoland Carlo Rovelli tells the story of the birth of quantum physics and its bright young founders who were to become some of the most famous Nobel winners in science. It is a celebration of youthful rebellion and intellectual revolution. An invitation to a magical place.Here Rovelli illuminates competing interpretations of this science and offers his own original view, describing the world we touch as a fabric woven by relations. Where we, as every other thing around us, exist in our interactions with one another, in a never-ending game of mirrors.A dazzling work from a celebrated scientist and master storyteller, Helgoland transports us to dizzying heights, reminding us of the many pleasures of the life of the mind.Translated by Erica Segre and Simon CarnellChosen as a Book of the Year by The Times, Financial Times, Sunday Times, Guardian and ProspectShortlisted for the Nayef Al-Rodhan Prize

'A thoroughly gripping and mesmerising work of black comedy and political disaster' - Guardian Winner of the 2017 Prix Goncourt Eric Vuillard's gripping novel The Order of the Day tells the story of the pivotal meetings which took place between the European powers in the run-up to World War Two. What emerges is a fascinating and incredibly moving account of failed diplomacy, broken relationships, and the catastrophic momentum which led to conflict. The titans of German industry - set to prosper under the Nazi government - gather to lend their support to Adolf Hitler. The Austrian Chancellor realizes too late that he has wandered into a trap, as Hitler delivers the ultimatum that will lay the groundwork for Germany's annexation of Austria. Winston Churchill joins Neville Chamberlain for a farewell luncheon held in honour of Joachim von Ribbentrop: German Ambassador to England, soon to be Foreign Minister in the Nazi government, and future defendant at the Nuremberg trials. Suffused with dramatic tension, this unforgettable novel tells the tragic story of how the actions of a few powerful men brought the world to the brink of war.

Prekvapujúco objavný pohľad na kvantovú teóriuČo je kvantová fyzika, ako ju objavili a čo vypovedá o nás? Odpoveď na tieto otázky formuluje Carlo Rovelli s preňho typickou filozofickou a kultúrnou hĺbkou, pričom jeho texty zostávajú jasné, výstižné a často priam lyrické.Začína opisom zrodu kvantovej fyziky na fascinujúcom ostrove bez stromov Helgoland v Severnom mori, kde sa mladý Werner Heisenberg liečil zo sennej nádchy. Práve tam prvý raz zazrel za klasickou mechanikou neobyčajné a prekrásne vnútro reality. V Rovelliho rozprávaní ožívajú géniovia svojej doby, približuje nám ich zvláštne pokusy, cez ktoré sa snažili pochopiť kvantovú teóriu, a objasňuje, prečo uznáva interpretáciu reality založenú na vzájomných interakciách a vzťahoch. Pokúša sa vysvetliť význam a vplyv tejto novej vízie sveta na filozofiu aj na chápanie seba samého. Sám hovorí:„Pochopenie, že neexistujeme ako autonómne subjekty, nám pomáha oslobodiť sa od pripútania a utrpenia. Práve pre svoju nestálosť, pre absenciu každého Absolútna má život zmysel a je drahocenný... sme len obrazmi obrazov. Realita vrátane nás samých je iba slabým a krehkým závojom, za ktorým... niet ničoho.“

Známý soudobý teoretický fyzik Carlo Rovelli, jeden z tvůrců smyčkové kvantové gravitace, ale také vynikající spisovatel, se v této knize zabývá okolnostmi vzniku kvantové mechaniky, snad nejpozoruhodnější fyzikální teorie všech dob. Nejprve elegantně líčí její zrod v díle Heisenberga a Schrödingera a popisuje hlavní podivnosti teorie. Následuje líčení, jak se s nimi různí fyzikové pokusili vypořádat: zavedli kvůli nim paralelní vesmíry, skryté fyzikální proměnné anebo postulovali kolaps měření. Ani s jedním z těchto bizarních řešení se Rovelli neztotožňuje a předkládá čtenáři zajímavou a přirozenou variantu, takzvanou relační interpretaci kvantové teorie. A jak už je Rovelliho dobrým zvykem, jedná se o napínavé, poučné, a přitom obecně srozumitelné čtení.

Autor, přední teoretický fyzik, spolutvůrce smyčkové kvantové gravitace, ale také výtečný spisovatel, se ve své nejnovější knize zabývá tajemstvím času, možná vůbec největší záhadou světa. V první části srozumitelným způsobem shrnuje, co o čase zjistila moderní fyzika. Vysvětluje, že fyzikální čas vůbec není unikátní, všude stejný a stejně plynoucí, dokonce není ani spojitý, a na kvantové úrovni se úplně vytrácí. Do tohoto podivuhodného světa zbaveného vší časovosti nás Rovelli zavádí ve druhé části knihy, aby nás ve třetí části své dobrodružné výpravy dovedl zpátky k nám, k lidským bytostem. Je totiž nutné vysvětlit, odkud se vlastně bere náš intenzivní pocit plynoucího času. Během pátrání po pachateli Rovelli přichází s odvážnou myšlenkou, totiž že pachatelem může být sám detektiv. Neboť tajemství času možná ve své podstatě netkví v základech v kosmu, ale v nás samotných.

From Carlo Rovelli, the bestselling author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics, this is a story of wonder, new worlds and why the end is just the beginningLet us journey into the heart of a black hole. Let us slip beyond its boundary, the horizon, and tumble - on and on - down this crack in the universe. As we plunge, we'll see geometry fold, we'll feel the equations draw tight around us.Eventually, we'll pass it: the remains of a star, deep and dense and falling further far. And then - the bottom. Where time and space end, and the white hole is born .. . With lightness and magic, here Carlo Rovelli traces the ongoing adventure of his own cutting-edge research, of the uncertainty and joy of going where we've not yet been.Guiding us to the edge of theory and experiment, he invites us to go beyond, to experience the fever and the disquiet of science.

eBook: Známý soudobý teoretický fyzik a nadšený popularizátor vědy Carlo Rovelli se ve své knize zaměřuje na zrod a interpretaci snad nejpozoruhodnější fyzikální teorie všech dob - kvantové mechaniky. Její základy položil Werner Heisenberg na odloučeném ostrově Helgoland v polovině 20. let minulého století a poznatky teorie se dodnes vymykají našim zažitým představám o fungování fyzikálního světa. Vědci se snažili vypořádat s podivuhodností kvantové mechaniky různými způsoby, například zaváděním nekonečného množství paralelních vesmírů, skrytých proměnných nebo předpovídáním dosud nepozorovaných fyzikálních mechanismů. Ani s jedním z těchto řešení se však Rovelli neztotožňuje a tvrdí, že k pochopení teorie je nutné opustit myšlenkové mantinely klasické fyziky a zásadně proměnit způsob, jakým nahlížíme na realitu a naše místo v ní. Rovelli znovu dokazuje, že dokáže poutavě, napínavě a srozumitelně líčit složitá témata pohybující se na pomezí fyziky a filozofie.Vychází ve spolupráci s nakladatelstvím Argo.

Napětím a nervozitou byly poznamenány už prázdniny a hned od začátku pátého ročníku přichází jeden otřes za druhým: na bradavické škole totiž z vůle Ministerstva kouzel došlo k závažným změnám a atmosféra strachu houstne každým dnem víc a víc. Nerozlučná trojice přátel však přesto dokáže kolem sebe soustředit dost studentů, kteří nebudou chtít se založenýma rukama čekat, až je zlo zahubí. To, co zažijí, už nejsou jen neškodná dobrodružství!Harry Potter is furious that he has been abandoned at the Dursleys' house for the summer, for he suspects that Voldemort is gathering an army, that he himself could be attacked, and that his so-called friends are keeping him in the dark. Finally rescued by wizard bodyguards, he discovers that Dumbledore is regrouping the Order of the Phoenix - a secret society first formed years ago to fight Voldemort. But the Ministry of Magic is against the Order, lies are being spread by the wizards' tabloid, the Daily Prophet, and Harry fears that he may have to take on this epic battle against evil alone.

eBook: Jedním z největších problémů moderní teoretické fyziky je kvantování gravitace, které se snaží propojit tři pilíře moderní fyziky: obecnou relativitu, kvantovou teorii a statistickou fyziku. Nejúspěšnějším pokusem posledních desetiletí je teorie smyčkové kvantové gravitace, vypracovaná týmem předních teoretiků, do kterého patří i autor této knihy Carlo Rovelli. Této teorii se podařilo dobře definovat kvanta prostoru i kvanta času a zdá se, že nekonečně malé rozměry ani nekonečně krátké časové intervaly opravdu neexistují. K důsledkům této teorie patří, že "realita není, čím se zdá": vzdálenost nelze dělit donekonečna, čas na fundamentální úrovni neexistuje, zmizí nepříjemné singularity z teorie černých děr a prvních okamžiků po velkém třesku. Nejlepším prostředníkem k seznámení s novým konceptem i jeho důsledky je tato výborně napsaná kniha: jednak proto, že ji napsal jeden z hlavních autorů celé teorie, ale zejména z toho důvodu, že Rovelli má vzácný talent jasně, poutavě a s nadhledem vysvětlovat nejspletitější fyzikální teorie. Kromě toho jde prozatím o jediné populární zpracování tohoto zajímavého a aktuálního tématu. Vychází ve spolupráci s nakladatelstvím Argo.

Kvantování gravitace patří k největším problémům dnešní teoretické fyziky. Nejde o nic menšího než o správné propojení tří pilířů moderní fyziky, jimiž jsou obecná relativita, kvantová teorie a statistická fyzika. A protože Einsteinova obecná relativita vysvětluje gravitaci deformací prostoročasu, klíčové je pochopit, co znamená kvantum prostoru a času. Rovelliho teorie má dalekosáhlé důsledky: „realita není, čím se zdá“, vzdálenost nelze dělit donekonečna, čas na fundamentální úrovni neexistuje, v centrech černých děr ani v počátečním velkém třesku našeho vesmíru nejsou ukryty ošklivé singularity. Zní to fantasticky a nepochopitelně? Skvěle napsaná kniha (vůbec první na toto téma) z pera jednoho z hlavních tvůrců smyčkové kvantové gravitace vám vysvětlí podrobnosti. A porozumíte jim. Protože Rovelli má vzácný talent s nadhledem vysvětlovat vrcholné vědecké teorie jasně a podmanivě, aniž by podlehl svodům komplikovaného matematického aparátu. Ne nadarmo se jeho popularizační knihy staly světovými bestsellery.

The first book of the next crisis. A history of interest rates by a leading financial commentator, updated with a new postscript.*Winner of the 2023 Hayek Book Prize**Longlisted for the 2022 Financial Times Business Book of the Year Award*All economic and financial activities take place across time. Interest coordinates these activities. The story of capitalism is thus the story of interest: the price that individuals, companies and nations pay to borrow money.In The Price of Time, Edward Chancellor traces the history of interest from its origins in ancient Mesopotamia, through debates about usury in Restoration Britain and John Law '' s ill-fated Mississippi scheme, to the global credit booms of the twenty-first century. We generally assume that high interest rates are harmful, but Chancellor argues that, whenever money is too easy, financial markets become unstable. He takes the story to the present day, when interest rates have sunk lower than at any time in the five millennia since they were first recorded - including the extraordinary appearance of negative rates in Europe and Japan - and highlights how this has contributed to profound economic insecurity and financial fragility.Chancellor reveals how extremely low interest rates not only create asset price inflation but are also largely responsible for weak economic growth, rising inequality, zombie companies, elevated debt levels and the pensions crises that have afflicted the West in recent years - conditions under which economies cannot possibly thrive. At the same time, easy money in China has inflated an epic real estate bubble, accompanied by the greatest credit and investment boom in history. As the global financial system edges closer to yet another crisis, Chancellor shows that only by understanding interest can we hope to face the challenges ahead.

'Marvellous . . . I read it with astonished delight . . . It is equally scholarly and entertaining.' –Jan Morris 'Quirky and compelling.' –The Times One we've learned it as children few of us think much of the alphabet and its familiar sing-song order. And yet the order if the alphabet, that simple knowledge that we take for granted, plays a major role in our adult lives. From the school register to the telephone book, from dictionaries and encyclopaedias to library shelves, our lives are ordered from A to Z. Long before Google searches, this magical system of organisation gave us the ability to sift through centuries of thought, knowledge and literature, allowing us to sort, to file, and to find the information we have, and to locate the information we need. In A Place for Everything, acclaimed historian Judith Flanders draws our attention to both the neglected ubiquity of the alphabet and the long, complex history of its rise to prominence. For, while the order of the alphabet itself became fixed very soon after letters were first invented, their ability to sort and store and organize proved far less obvious. To many of our forebears, the idea of of organising things by the random chance of the alphabet rather than by established systems of hierarchy or typology lay somewhere between unthinkable and disrespectful. A Place for Everything fascinatingly lays out the gradual triumph of alphabetical order, from its possible earliest days as a sorting tool in the Great Library of Alexandria in the third century BCE, to its current decline in prominence in our digital age of Wikipedia and Google. Along the way, the reader is enlightened and entertained with a wonderful cast of unknown facts, characters and stories from the great collector Robert Cotton, who denominated his manuscripts with the names of the busts of the Roman emperors surmounting his book cases, to the unassuming sixteenth- century London bookseller who ushered in a revolution by listing his authors by 'sirname' first.

'A wonderful book about Stephen Hawking's biggest legacy' Spectator'Truly mind-stretching... Immensely rewarding' The Times'This superbly written book offers insight into an extraordinary individual, the creative process, and the scope and limits of our current understanding of the cosmos' Sir Martin ReesStephen Hawking's closest collaborator offers the intellectual superstar's final thoughts on the universe. Perhaps the biggest question Stephen Hawking tried to answer in his extraordinary life was how the universe could have created conditions so perfectly hospitable to life.In order to solve this mystery, Hawking studied the big bang origin of the universe, but his early work ran into a crisis when the math predicted many big bangs producing a multiverse - countless different universes, most of which would be far too bizarre to harbour life. Holed up in the theoretical physics department at Cambridge, Stephen Hawking and his friend and collaborator Thomas Hertog worked on this problem for twenty years, developing a new theory of the cosmos that could account for the emergence of life. Peering into the extreme quantum physics of cosmic holograms and venturing far back in time, they were startled to find a deeper level of evolution in which the physical laws themselves transform and simplify until particles, forces, and even time itself fades away.This discovery led them to a revolutionary idea: The laws of physics are not set in stone but are born and co-evolve as the universe they govern takes shape. As Hawking's final days drew near, the two collaborators published their theory, which proposed a radical new Darwinian perspective on the origins of our universe. On the Origin of Time offers a striking new vision of the universe's birth that will profoundly transform the way we think about our place in the order of the cosmos and may ultimately prove to be Hawking's greatest legacy.

Laterna Magika, which combines multi-genre theatre performances and films projected onto several screens on stage, emerged as as part of the programme promoting Czechoslovakian culture for Expo 58. Owing to its experimental nature, its combination of different art forms, the interconnection of art and new technologies, its significant role in the international promotion of Czechoslovakia, and its collaboration with numerous remarkable personalities, Laterna Magika was and still is a unique phenomenon within the context of Czech / Slovakian and international art. This monograph, which focuses on the period between 1958 and 1992, presents it as a phenomenon shaped by its many dichotomies: Laterna Magika is both fragmentary and complex, distractive and immersive, past and present, reproduced and live, traditional and progressive, ideological and critical of ideology, popular and elitist, discreet and voyeuristic.
