In this profound book, Elias characteristically turns an ancient
philosophical question - what is time? - into a researchable
theoretical-empirical problem. What we call 'time' is neither an
innate property of the human mind nor an immutable quality of the
'external' world. Rather it is an achievement of the human capacity
for 'synthesis', for using symbolic thought to make connections
between two or more sequences of events. In the course of human
social development, that capacity has itself changed and developed.
It is originally written in English. Two later additional sections
have been translated by Edmund Jephcott.
