Computer and video games are leaving the PC and conquering the arena of everyday life in the form of mobile applications—the result is new types of cities and architecture. How do these games alter our perception of real and virtual space? What can the designers of physical and digital worlds learn from one another?

This book contains selected papers from the First International Conference on the Ontology of Spacetime. Its fourteen chapters address two main questions: first, what is the current status of the substantivalism/relationalism debate, and second, what about the prospects of presentism and becoming within present-day physics and its philosophy? The overall tenor of the four chapters of the book's first part is that the prospects of spacetime substantivalism are bleak, although different possible positions remain with respect to the ontological status of spacetime. Part II and Part III of the book are devoted to presentism, eternalism, and becoming, from two different perspectives. In the six chapters of Part II it is argued, in different ways, that relativity theory does not have essential consequences for these issues. It certainly is true that the structure of time is different, according to relativity theory, from the one in classical theory. But that does not mean that a decision is forced between presentism and eternalism, or that becoming has proved to be an impossible concept. It may even be asked whether presentism and eternalism really offer different ontological perspectives at all. The writers of the last four chapters, in Part III, disagree. They argue that relativity theory is incompatible with becoming and presentism. Several of them come up with proposals to go beyond relativity, in order to restore the prospects of presentism.· Space and time in present-day physics and philosophy · Introduction from scratch of the debates surrounding time · Broad spectrum of approaches, coherently represented

Based on simple, common-sense observations, the author introduces spacetime in an easily understandable way. Concepts in and around spacetime are explained first independently of any kind of ‘relativity connotation’, then in the nonrelativistic context and finally in the special relativistic context. Reference frames, while traditionally foundational, make reasoning about spacetime unnecessarily particular. Thinking in terms of spacetime itself makes us much more confident and creative and this carries over to other branches of physics as spacetime is the stage where ‘physics happens’. The consistent mathematical formalism of the textbook is as simple as possible and close to the everyday practice of physicists. It helps readers realize that precise mathematical formulation avoids paradoxes and, in general, it is a valuable guide towards the better understanding of Nature.
