ABOUT THIS BOOK
First published in 1975 and still without equal, The Human Experience of Time provides a thorough review of the concept of time in the Western philosophic tradition. Encompassing a wide range of writings, from the Book of Genesis and the classical thinkers to the work of such twentieth-century philosophers as Collingwood and McKeon, all with introductory essays by the editor, this classic anthology offers a synoptic view of the changing philosophic notions of time.
AUTHOR BIOGRAPHY
Charles M. Sherover is a professor emeritus of philosophy at Hunter College. He is the author of Heidegger, Kant, and Time and Time, Freedom and the Common Good: An Essay in Public Philosophy.
