Surveys Einstein's work on developing his theory of relativity and discusses recent developments in radioastronomy, cosmology, and field theory based on Einstein's discovery.
Provides basic evidence for the nonexistence of time, explaining what a timeless universe is like and showing how the nonexistence of time solves a great paradox of modern science.
Explores Einstein's theory of relativity, its initial reception as well as current scientific acceptance of his ideas about time and space, and the mysterious workings of our universe.
