Is Time Real ? 

In a new book, "Time Reborn" (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, April 2013), author and theoretical physicist Lee Smolin argues that time is real. This is a controversial view, as most physicists consider time to actually be illusory.

Columbia University physicist Peter Woit, writing in his blog Not Even Wrong, disagrees with Smolin's proposal, stating that there are problems with Smolin's view that the laws of nature evolve over time.
