"This summation of all paths, proposed in the 1960s by physicist Richard
Feynman and others, is the only way to explain some of the bizarre
properties of quantum particles, such as their apparent ability to be in two
places at once. The key point is that not all paths contribute equally to
the photon's behaviour: the straight-line trajectory dominates over the
indirect ones.

Hertog argues that the same must be true of the path through time that took
the Universe into its current state. We must regard it as a sum over all
possible histories."
