Description
Is time passing a basic feature of reality, or only illusory? How can the present move? Is the past real, or only the present? If the present is durationless, have we any reson to think that our now is the interface between past and future? Is space nothingness, or an entity in it's own right? By surveying modern and historical debates, the text introduces the central issues that make space and time so philosophically challenging. Although recognising that many issues in the philosophy of time and space involve technical features of physics, the author has been careful to keep the conceptual issues throughout accessible to students with little scientific or mathematical training.
