The aim of this interdisciplinary study is to reconstruct the
evolution of our changing conceptions of time in the light of
scientific discoveries. It will adopt a new perspective and
organize the material around three central themes, which run
through our history of time reckoning: cosmology and regularity;
stasis and flux; symmetry and asymmetry. It is the physical
criteria that humans choose - relativistic effects and
time-symmetric equations or dynamic-kinematic effects and
asymmetric conditions - that establish our views on the nature of
time. This book will defend a dynamic rather than a static view of
time.
