We all feel we live in the present moment, but what does 'now' really mean?According to Einstein's relativity, 'now' doesn't exist. There is no special point of happening out in the universe, when possibility becomes reality, when the open future becomes the solid past. But if now is an illusion, where does our feeling of 'nowness' come from? What are we sensing and perceiving in each moment? And if everything is already decided, how can we ever choose what we do? Drawing on the latest research in fields from neuroscience, psychology and anthropology to ecology, cosmology and quantum physics, In Search of Now bridges mind and matter to rescue 'now' as the fundamental ingredient of existence, and reveal how we all help to create each moment through our interactions with the world.Join Jo Marchant as she tackles questions of time, self, consciousness and reality - exploring the secrets of how our lives unfold.
