Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book probes the nature of time and space, length, and distance, linking them to our comprehension of the universe. The author posits that humans perceive numerous phenomena that are actually singular, and that this limited perspective informs our understanding of both time and space. By employing the velocity of light to illustrate the concept of seeing events that transpired thousands of years ago, the author proposes that we can "live" through the entirety of the world's history in a single moment, as the images of past events continually travel out into space. The author also asserts that if events unfolded at a much faster rate, we would not perceive the change. This book is thought-provoking work that challenges ingrained beliefs about the nature of time and space, inviting readers to consider the relationship between our perception and reality, and the possibility that time and space may be subjective rather than objective. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282270551_0
