About this title

Review

"Very ambitious . . . no ordinary anthology. . . . [I]f it takes the work of many disciplines to explore the meaning of time . . . then this will be a book to go to in order to hear the philosopher's side of the story." --International Philosophical Quarterly
"A long needed book, which will be widely welcomed and used. It is unique in its scope and in the sympathetic intelligence of its exposition." --Review of Metaphysics
