Has anyone read "The End Of Time" by Julian Barbour?

[Gareth]

I picked this book up around 5 years ago and started reading it but couldnt maintain it. Maybe the fact that I was only 21 had something to do with it, but it was really fascinating at points and Im wandering if I should have another go.

For anyone thats read it, would you recommend making the effort to read the book?

Heres the cover:

Its a really fascinating view of time that defines the universe as a series of continuous states, rather than a linear timeline. The linear/non-linear thing is fairly well known but this book presents a theory that I had never really heard of at the time. (well the first 50 pages or so anyway)

I have just started to read this, it certainly is a radical theory, it makes you think how someone could have such a perspective. excellent book!

It sounds like an interesting book. I would like to hear more about it if and when you finish it.
