The Order of Time | Carlo Rovelli
In this episode of the Books for Men podcast, host Douglas Vigliotti discusses the book The Order of Time by Carlo Rovelli. Vigliotti, who admits to having failed a physics class in college, finds the book enjoyable and accessible even for those with little knowledge or interest in physics. He appreciates Rovelli's ability to simplify complex topics without oversimplifying them, making them understandable to a wider audience. Vigliotti is particularly drawn to the book's exploration of time, a subject that fascinates him personally. He praises Rovelli's writing style, which combines scientific and philosophical elements, and highlights some of the book's key insights, such as the concept of impermanence and the idea that the world is a collection of events rather than things. Vigliotti encourages listeners to read the book themselves and shares information on how to support the podcast.
