Samenvatting
According to Christensen (philosophy, U. of Alberta), previous work on the theory that time is like space has failed to reveal fully all its consequences. Christensen's analysis examines evidence for and against that theory, and compares and contrasts other concepts of time. Also discussed are such issues as the asymmetry of time, the relationship between causation and time, and the problem of inertia. The final chapter is devoted to the import of the Theory of Relativity for the nature of time. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
