Alongside a glossary and detailed timeline to further enhance study and understanding, each chapter features: - Extensive lists of further reading in both primary and secondary sources- A chronological listing of key figures, brief biographical data and references- True/false questions, matching, multiple choice, and short answer questionsTime is a central philosophical subject, impacting on all many different aspects of philosophy.
