内容説明

This study provides a connection between the biological time constraints which are barely noticeable, and the culturally-shaped representations of time which impinge actively on our conscious mind. It offers an insight into the significance of time in virtually all aspects of daily life, and demonstrates the practical applications of these ideas. For most people, the significance of time lies in the way it shapes our daily behaviour, rather than in its fundamental place in philosophy or physics. Biological rhythms, for instance, are clearly relevant to practical human experience and situations, such as shift work or jet lag. Socially, we are all dependent on rules and constraints governing our work and leisure time, and many of our personal activities and rituals follow temporal rules concerning duration, order, or simultaneity. This work should be of interest to practitioners and students of psychology, and well as management-oriented consultants and researchers.
