Publisher Info
Dallas Institute of Humanities and Culture Publications. InquiryTime has many dimensions - Is it real or virtual? Does it stand still or race by? Is time merely a human need rather than a universal reality? This witty little book, TIME Doesn't TICK Anymore, explores our notions of time, ranging from the sundial, to the grandfather clock - with its rhythmic tick tock - to the digital sense of time flashing past us in increments of nanoseconds, relentlessly pulsating, driving, and speeding up the pace of life. Our sense of time changes the way we live. T.S. Eliot's line seems to apply: "Hurry up, please. It's time." Illustrations, Tashasan. Book Design, Suzanna Brown. 6.75 x 7.75, 56 pp.w/ illus.
