On Time: Causality and the Quantum Gravity Conflict
Zaanen, Prof Jan (Professor of theoretical physic, Professor of theoretical physic, Institute of Physics, Leiden University, The Netherlands)
The case is made that gravity is a necessary condition for a causal universe. The book is unique in the regard that the consequences of this machinery: Riemannian geometry and Penrose diagrams, thermal quantum fields, quantum non-equilibrium and more, are explained conveying the conceptual consequences while avoiding mathematical technicalities.
