Carlo Rovelli: Nothing Exists Alone
Carlo Rovelli returns to discuss his new book On the Equality of All Things, arguing that nothing exists in isolation—everything is relational. The conversation spans the implications of quantum mechanics, the nature of time, and the Big Bounce hypothesis. Rovelli explains why motion and particle properties only make sense in relation to other things, and why science's power lies in acknowledging its own ignorance. He also connects his thinking to Eastern philosophy and argues that giving up the need for absolute certainty can be profoundly serene.
