Einstein was WRONG About Time. Our Modern Theories are in Trouble.

At the intersection of philosophy, language and science lies the indispensable notion of time and its many interpretations. But how do we know which interpretation is the correct one -- the one we should build our theories of reality around? When a 26 year-old asked himself this question in 1905, he stumbled down a pathway that would start a revolution and forever alter the course of physics -- but did he make the right choice? Or will a simple philosophical conflation made by a youthful mind wind up posing one of the greatest hindrances to the advancement of human knowledge that history has ever known?
