Sinossi
The asymmetry of natural phenomena under time reversal is striking. Here the author investigates the most important classes of physical phenomena that characterize the arrow of time, discussing their interrelations as well as striving to uncover a cosmological common root of the phenomena, such as the time-independent wave function of the universe. The description of irreversible phenomena is shown to be fundamentally "observer related". This is a new and expanded edition.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSICS
"...an excellent summary of what is known at present about this fascinating mystery.”
FROM THE REVIEWS:
ZENTRALBLATT MATH
"The book contains an impressive (we’d say exhaustive) list of references: almost 300 titles (papers and books)...We have to mention the high scientific value of the book, its rigorous well-documented discussion of the subject, refinement and subtlety of its reasonings. We strongly recommend it to students and specialists in various fields of theoretical physics.”
