This book is beautifully written, engaging throughout and captivating... Authoritative and intelligent without being arrogant. Claire Colebrook, The Pennsylvania State University Dorothea E. Olkowski seeks to determine the limits of an ontology that derives its categories from the physics of deterministic chaos. She does so on the basis of an informed engagement with the history of modern physics. She goes on to develop an ethical framework based on phenomenological characteristics of the experience of the arrow of time. Andrew Cutrofello, Loyola University Chicago
