In search of now : the science of the present moment
Marchant, Jo, 1973-2026
Books
We all feel we live in the present moment, but what does 'now' really mean? The ever-flowing present moment captures all that we perceive in the universe; it is the only thing we can ever directly know. Yet it slips forever through our fingers, so ephemeral that many scientists argue it doesn't exist at all. In Search of Now investigates what 'now' really is, drawing on the latest research in fields from neuroscience, psychology and anthropology to cosmology and quantum physics to rescue our perception as a fundamental ingredient of existence and reveal how we all help to create each moment through our interactions with the world.
