"It is about time a book of this magnitude came into the picture. Very timely. It covers the topic well."--Scott Engel,
Miles Community College"A wonderful collection of stimulating essays which are sure to hold the interest of my students."--Micheal W. Palmer,
Bluefield College"This is an excellent single volume treatment of a most important subject. It nicely combines both classical and contemporary approaches. The price is right, too."--Robert P. Tucker,
Florida Southern College"Though philosophers have long attended to the profound implications physics has had upon our understanding of time, interest again appears to be growing in metaphysical issues of time as well. Le Poidevin and MacBeath's outstanding new anthology-presenting influential viewpoints current within the metaphysics rather than physics of time-not only reflects this trend, but should provide a powerful impetus to it....An important compilation of recent works useful for professionals and for advanced students in the metaphysics of time. As the newest volume in the
Oxford Readings in Philosophy, this book makes an outstanding addition to an already distinguished series."--
