Synopsis

The Inordinance of Time develops an account of the experience of time at the intersection of three approaches: phenomenology, cognitive science, and post-structuralism. Using insights developed in both the phenomenological and cognitive traditions Gallagher explores the inadequacies of the existing models, the limitations imposed by introspective reflection, concepts of intentionality and embodied existence, and the extra-intentional processes that govern the operations of consciousness and memory.

Review

"Under the suggestive title of The Inordinance of Time, Shaun Gallagher offers a wide-ranging discussion of the problem of time drawing from such divergent approaches as Husserlian phenomenology, post-structuralism, hermeneutics, and cognitive science." —Continental Philosophy Review
