Book Description
This book brings together new essays on a major focus of debate in contemporary metaphysics: does time really pass, or is our ordinary experience of time as consisting of past, present, and future an illusion? The international contributors broaden this debate by demonstrating the importance of questions about the nature of time for philosophical issues in ethics, aesthetics, psychology, science, religion, and language.
Review
"a remarkable collection of essays on the contemporary metaphysical debate concerning the status of our commonsense understanding of time as divided into past, present and future ... a well-produced volume" -- L. B. McHenry, Choice
