Times Second Arrow

by Robert M. Hazen, Michael L. Wong

W. W. Norton & Company · 2026 · 192 pages

While the universe is often seen as succumbing to decay, this book proposes a compelling counter-argument: a universal drive toward complexity. The authors challenge the long-held notion that time's arrow points solely toward disorder, suggesting a second, fundamental law of nature that explains the emergence of intricate structures, from minerals to life itself. For readers fascinated by cosmology, evolutionary theory, and the grand questions of existence, this work offers a profound re-evaluation of cosmic progress.
