Discover a thought-provoking boxed set for curious readers: the Carlo Rovelli Collection 3 Books Set—Reality Is Not What It Seems, The Order of Time, and Seven Brief Lessons on Physics. Perfect for science lovers, students, teachers, and gift buyers, this paperback edition brings together three approachable, beautifully written works by a leading theoretical physicist. Clear explanations, poetic insight, and big ideas make this collection a standout book collection for anyone fascinated by the nature of reality, time, and modern physics.

What’s included

  • Reality Is Not What It Seems — Do space and time truly exist? What is reality made of? Carlo Rovelli traces centuries of thought, from Democritus to loop quantum gravity, revealing how our picture of the universe has changed and why the fundamental texture of reality may be stranger than intuition suggests.
  • The Order of Time — Time is a deep mystery. Blending philosophy, literature, and science, Rovelli explains how modern physics reshapes our understanding of past, present, and future: from Boltzmann and quantum theory to Einstein and loop quantum gravity. Learn why the flow of time is not as simple as it seems and how different places can experience time differently.
  • Seven Brief Lessons on Physics — A slim, captivating introduction to the scientific revolution of the twentieth century. In seven short lessons Rovelli illuminates general relativity, quantum mechanics, black holes, elementary particles, the architecture of the universe, gravity, and even the nature of the mind. Accessible and entertaining—ideal for first-time readers of popular science.
