Time, the Familiar Stranger by J T Fraser

The culmination of 30 years' work, this book examines classical and contemporary theories and conceptions of time. Fraser explores an expansive range of topics: the origins of the universe, the history of timekeeping devices, the biology of ageing and death, human perception of time, dreaming vs waking reality, expectation and memory, scientists' exploration of time in the physical world, and the ways in which technological rhythms control our lives.
