Unifying thinking that has never been brought together before in a book for the general reader, barbour reveals the true architecture of the universe and demonstrates how physics is coming up sharp against the extraordinary possibility that the sense of time passing emerges from a universe that is timelessfinally, in a lucid and eloquent epilogue, the author speculates on the philosophical implications of his theory: does free will exist? is time travel possible? how did the universe begin? where is heaven? does the denial of time make life meaningless? written with exceptional clarity and elegance, this profound and original work presents a dazzlingly powerful argument that all will be able to follow, but no-one with an interest in the workings of the universe will be able to ignorealthough the laws of physics create a powerful impression that time is flowing, in fact there are only timeless 'nows'the heart of the book is the author's lucid description of how a world of stillness can appear to be teeming with motion: in this timeless world where all possible instants coexist, complex mathematical rules of quantum mechanics bind together a special selection of these instants in a coherent order that consciousness perceives as the flow of timeoxfam bookshop cheltenham time is an illusionsee oxfam website for delivery information read morein the end of time, the british theoretical physicist julian barbour describes the coming revolution in our understanding of the world: a quantum theory of the universe that brings together einstein's general theory of relativity, which denies the existence of a unique time, and quantum mechanics, which demands onethis is the first full-length account of the crisis in our understanding that has enveloped quantum cosmologybarbour believes that only the most radical of ideas can resolve the conflict between these two theories: that there is, quite literally, no time at all

Today's architecture has failed the body with its long heritage of purity of form and aesthetic of cleanlinessa resurgence of interest in flesh, especially in art, has led to a politics of abjection, completely changing traditional aesthetics, and is now giving light to an alternative discussion about the body in architecturehybrid technologies and interdisciplinary work methodologies are thus required, and lead to a revision of our current architectural practiceoxfam shop castle street this is an "as new" paperback copy of the editionin a time when a pervasive discourse about the impact of digital technologies risks turning the architectural skin ever more disembodied, this book argues for a thick embodied flesh by exploring architectural interfaces that are truly inhabitableit seeks to challenge a common misunderstanding of skin as a flat and thin surfacethe latter is materialised in form of synthetic neoplasms, which are proposed as new semi-living entities, rather than more commonly derived from scaled-up analogies between biological systems and larger scale architectural constructsthese 'neoplasmatic' creations are identified as partly designed object and partly living material, in which the line between the natural and the artificial is progressively blurredthrough the analysis and design of a variety of buildings and projects, flesh is proposed as a concept that extends the meaning of skin, one of architecture's most fundamental metaphorssee oxfam website for delivery information read moredifferent concepts of flesh are investigated, not only concerning the architectural and aesthetic, but also the biological aspectsthis book is dedicated to a future vision of the body in architecture, questioning the contemporary relationship between our human flesh and the changing architectural flesh
