Synopsis

Most of the contributors are Swiss--from the old stomping ground of Jean Piaget, whose thinking haunts the collection. Others are French German, and even North American. From the perspectives of psychology, sociology, language, and other social sciences, they review current research into time, particularly the relationships between time and awareness. They cover internal time; memory in time; logic, language, and time; developmental time; time for learning; and the pluri-temporality of humans and their artifacts. There is no index.

Review

"Thinking Time recasts the importance of time in how we think about human experience and gives us new language by which we can deepen our explorations of the role of time in psychology." "An interdisciplinary collection of 20 chapters. ...All are concisely written and very well edited. ... A carefully prepared volume. ...Such a diverse set of international contributors brings liveliness to the book's scholarship." MacGregor in PsycCRITIQUES, April issue 2006
