“In his new book, ‘The End of Time: The Next Revolution in Physics’, Julian Barbour asserts that time simply doesn’t exist. This by itself is not so shocking. My friend Artie, for example, has always insisted that there’s only change, not time. Things move around; time may just be a way of noting that. But Barbour goes further. He says there’s no such thing as motion either. Instead, Barbour sees a universe filled with static instants – instants that contain “records” that fool any conscious beings who happen to find themselves encased in one into believing that things have moved and time has passed.” – Feed
