Physics of time

"Physics of time" is a book category that gathers works exploring time as a physical phenomenon: its nature, origin, direction, measurement, and role in fundamental laws. Titles range from technical textbooks and research monographs on relativity, thermodynamics, and quantum approaches to time, to popular-science treatments and interdisciplinary studies addressing the arrow of time, entropy, causality, time’s emergence from quantum gravity, cosmological time, and experimental tests of time-related theories. Books in this category examine conceptual puzzles (e.g., time symmetry vs. irreversibility), technological and metrological aspects (clocks and timekeeping), and speculative implications like time travel, while often engaging with philosophical questions about temporality and experience. The category suits physicists, students, and curious general readers interested in rigorous but accessible accounts of how modern physics understands — and sometimes unsettles — our everyday sense of time.
