Time Reborn: From the Crisis in Physics to the Future of the Universe"If you are looking for a bracing alternative vision of physics built from the ground up, Smolin's Time Reborn will take you to the mountaintop." NPR What is time? It's the sort of question we rarely ask because it seems so obvious. And yet, to a physicist, time is simply a human construct and an illusion. If you could somehow get outside the universe and observe it from there, you would see that every moment has always existed and always will. Lee
"If you are looking for a bracing alternative vision of physics built from the ground up, Smolin's Time Reborn will take you to the mountaintop." -- NPR
What is time? It's the sort of question we rarely ask because it seems so obvious. And yet, to a physicist, time is simply a human construct and an illusion. If you could somehow get outside the universe and observe it from there, you would see that every moment has always existed and always will. Lee Smolin disagrees, and in Time Reborn he lays out the case why. Developments in physics and cosmology point toward the reality of time and the openness of the future. Smolin's groundbreaking theory postulates that physical laws can evolve over time and the future is not yet determined. Newton's fundamental laws may not remain so fundamental. Time Reborn serves as a popular primer and investigation of time, both what it is and how the true nature of it impacts our world. "He challenges not only Einstein's relativity, but also the very notion of natural laws as immutable truths." -- Economist "One of the essential books of the twenty-first century . . . Smolin provides a much-needed dose of clarity about time, with implications that go far beyond physics to economics, politics, and personal philosophy." -- Jaron Lanier, author of You Are Not a GadgetBinding Type: Paperback

Nice burrow toy for small to med dog
Style: Popcorn Bucket
We like it! He loves to dig into stuff so this is a perfect addition to his other burrow toys. The most compact and only one hole makes it somewhat challenging for him.

a fun toy!
Style: Popcorn Bucket
My dog absolutely loves this toy! I have to repeatedly stuff the pieces back inside so he can pull them out. That being said, if you have a heavy chewer this one will bite the dust pretty quick. It’s cute but not sturdy for chewers.

Perfect for keeping energetic pups busy, mentally stimulated, and happy!
Style: Milk & Cookies
I bought this interactive dog toy to keep my puppy mentally stimulated and it has been a huge hit! At first i was worried she wouldn't understand the concept but once i started squeaking the cookies inside the milk container she couldn't stop poking around until she was able to get all three cookies out. Trying to get the cookies out keeps her entertained but even after she gets them out she loves running around chewing and squeaking on the cookies. The milk container has holes just big enough to make her work a little but not get too frustrated, and the cookies are durable enough for her to keep chewing on without chewing right through them and without her hurting herself on them. Plus cleanup is easy too they wash quickly in warm water. Since the cookies are pretty small they can easily get lost under couches or beds.

My Cattle dog mix loves these!
Style: Popcorn Bucket
For a hyperactive super smart dog, this popcorn puzzle is a great treat! This is her second and she still plays with her first. I'm going to go ahead and probably buy her some other versions of puzzle toys. This is a good one. Buy it.

Needs to sell replacement popcorns
Style: Popcorn Bucket
My dog love this toy however, we have 5 popcorn buckets and only two popcorn balls left. It would be great if there was way to just buy the replacement popcorns. I haven't found them anywhere though.
