About Time: Einstein's Unfinished Revolution is a book written by Paul Davies that seeks to explain the concept of time, relativity, and cosmology to a broader audience. The book aims to help readers understand puzzling concepts in Physics that are often perceived to be complicated. The book is well-written and easy to understand, making it accessible for individuals who may not have a strong background on the subject matter. Several reviewers praised Davies for his ability to clarify complex concepts in Physics and make them easy to understand. One reviewer noted that they would not be reading anything about Physics were it not for Davies and Leonard Shlain. Another described the book as an excellent, thoughtful, and authoritative book about our place in the Universe. However, some reviewers felt that the book veered away from the main topic, time, into a treatise on cosmology. While cosmology has close ties to time, some felt that the book lost sight of the key subject. Additionally, one reviewer noted that the book was a little old, and in Physics, the date of publication could be critical. Overall, About Time: Einstein's Unfinished Revolution received positive reviews and is recommended for individuals interested in the concepts of time, relativity, and cosmology.
