<br/><br/> Wyller enquires into time's complex nature, juxtaposing the latest scientific theories with our personal experience of chronology. After examining the notion of time in physics, history, religion, anthropology, philosophy and literature, the author concludes by proposing his own theory of time: that the temporal character of any series of events is essentially practical, and derived from human life. --From publisher description.
