Program Title: Lee Smolin-Time Reborn-Bookbits author interview
Description: Waterloo, Ontario's Perimeter Institute is one of the top research facilities for cutting-edge physics. Professors such as Stephen Hawking come to exchange ideas and work out problems. Lee Smolin is one of its founders. He is also a bit of a rebel. In most theories of how the universe works Time can run as easily forwards as back. Smolin doesn't like that. His new book, “Time Reborn: From the Crisis in Physics to the Future of the Universe” challenges those established theories.

Host(s): Craig Rintoul
