time warped unlocking the mysteries of time perception

In an era when our time feels fractured and imperiled, Alderman encourages readers to ponder time used and time spent. The Book of Times: From Seconds to Centuries, a Compendium of Measures, by Lesley Alderman With his journalist's eye for detail, Klein combines original investigation and reportage, personal revelation and a wide-ranging, commanding presentation of scientific research among disciplines with the goal of guiding us not only to better master time but also to understand why we so often fail to do so. The Secret Pulse of Time: Making Sense of Life's Scarcest Commodity, by Stefan Klein Why does life speed up as we get older? Why does the clock in your head sometimes move at a different speed from the one on the wall? Time rules our lives, but how much do we understand it? And is it possible to retrain our brains and improve our relationship with it? Drawing on the latest research, the author delves into the mysteries of time perception.
