Title: Makes no sense
Review: I did not read the entire book. I don't think I could have gotten through it. I picked it up in a book store and read portions of it. Since this is a book intended for the lay reader this was sufficient to tell me whether the book was worth purchasing.I am not a physicist, just an educated layman. The book uses a whole bunch of scientific jargon to say nothing. To provide a convincing argument that time is an illusion Barbour must find some alternative way of explaining all those phenomena that we explain using time, like why firecrackers explode after the fuse is lit. He does not do this.I would recommend that anyone intending to buy this book first leaf through it at a library or book store. If it makes sense to you then more power to you. Go and buy it. Otherwise do not waste your time and money.
