'ER: Existence, Reality and Time' continues the journey begun in 'Time Explained'. While the earlier book offered a broad introduction to the mysteries of time and first outlined the framework of Existential Realism (ER), this work takes the next step: a deep dive into the philosophical heart of ER.
At once rigorous and accessible, the book explores how existence unfolds in the present, how reality extends into past and future, and why becoming—rather than static being—must stand at the center of our understanding of time. It responds to the many questions raised by Time Explained, clarifying, expanding, and strengthening the vision of a temporal system that unites lived experience with scientific insight.
