I'm currently reading the chapter on time's arrow, and what a light-bulb-popping chapter it is. So I have to share what I have just read. Apparently, Sean Carroll suggests (and I have been agreeing on this for quite some time even before reading this) that just as it is possible for an unbroken egg to become broken and scrambled as we move forward in time, it is possible for the reverse process to occur! There is nothing about the physical laws being violated when we think of a broken egg becoming unbroken just purely by physical processes, but it just so happens to be an extraordinarily unlikely event to occur as to be virtually impossible in the time stream that we see ourselves in.
Now of course, Sean Carroll will next link this properly to entropy, so now I'm going to see what he has to say next in the next subsection of the chapter.
Later.
