Reviews

...the book is interesting and should be widely read...provides an accessible and profound introduction to the topic and at the same time it expands the framework of the current theory of presentism...This stimulating study is warmly recommended to anyone interested in the metaphysics of time and in the relations between philosophy and physics. Vera Tripodi Humana,Mente
