The case is made that gravity is a necessary condition for a causal universe. The book is unique in the regard that the consequences of this machinery: Riemannian geometry and Penrose diagrams, thermal quantum fields, quantum non-equilibrium and more, are explained conveying the conceptual consequences while avoiding mathematical technicalities.
