Studying the concept of time as it is experienced in human intuition, this work also attempts to capture time in an epistemological form. It examines proposals to interpret time from a mathematical approach or from the perspective of the physical sciences with reference to investigations by Adolf Grunbaum and W.H. Newton-Smith. In addition it offers a brief treatment of Kant's theory of time. The main themes of the book are: the origin of time; the nature of time; the direction of time; time and identity; time and ontology; time as principle; the geometricization of time; the metric of time; and the disappearance of time.
