Summary of Carlo Rovelli's The Order of Time

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The world is not as it seems to be on the surface. Time passes more slowly in some places than in others. This is because of the modification of the structure of time, which affects the movement of bodies and causes them to fall toward each other. #2 The slowing down of time has many effects, including the falling of objects.
It allows us to keep our feet firmly on the ground, because if our feet adhere to the pavement, it is because our entire body inclines naturally to where time runs more slowly. #3 The time that a particular clock measures is called proper time in physics. Every clock has its own proper time. Every phenomenon that occurs has its own proper time, which is different from every other clock's proper time. #4 The world is not like a platoon marching in step with a single commander.
It's a network of events that affect each other. Time has lost its first aspect, which was its unity. It passes differently here than there.
