A Brief History of Time: Chapter 7-9

[Winter, Group Reads]

This is the discussion thread for A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking Chapter 7-9

[Shanna]

Chapter 9, "The Arrow of Time" is my favorite chapter so far. The ideas of different "types" of time are very interesting. I also think Hawking is doing a good job of explaining how scientific knowledge evolves over time as new evidence is discovered and understood. Not only is science unafraid to admit to misconceptions, it continuously seeks to prove or disprove current theories as new methods and tools are made available. Our world needs more of this forward thinking.
