Reviews

An honest, vigourous, systematic attempt to grasp that fundamental and most knotty human experience: time. From McTchange to the methodologies time theorists should employ, this thoughtful defence of the growing block rewards study. * Emily Thomas, Professor of Philosophy, Durham University, UK * Forbes' book is an excellent and original inquiry into the nature of time, examining what time means for our lives while also emphasizing the importance of empirical approaches. I highly recommend it to anyone interested not only in philosophy of time but in any deep and serious philosophical investigation. * Giuliano Torrengo, Associate Professor of Philosophy, University of Milan, Italy *
