Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.
From the Publisher
The subject of this book is time, one of the small number ofelusive essences of the world, unsubdued by human will. The threeglobal problems of natural science, those of the origin of theUniverse, life and consciousness, cannot be solved without finding outthe nature of time. Without a good construction of time it isimpossible to describe, to qualify, to forecast and to control variousprocesses in the animate and inanimate nature. Special attention ispaid to the ways of adequate inclusion of the properties of time inthe derivation of the fundamental equations of motion for naturalsystems. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
