The biggest drawback of this publication is that the reader has a very distinctive almost robotic quality to his presentation. Without specific nuanced inflections in his voice, you cannot determine which parts are more or less significant and therefore much of the meaning islost. The effect is similar to the removal of punctuation.

A little hard to follow

I like to challenge my Liberal Arts educated Brain with occasional ventures into discussions of scientific issues. Most often I come away amazed by the complexity of the research into Physics, Biology and Neuroscience but I keep trying. This was another of those times, excuse the pun.

A simple concept like Time has brought the greatest Minds of Western Science to their proverbial knees and their efforts are well documented here, though I have to admit I came away with only an appreciation of how not-simple the concept of Time is.
