- Synopsis
- Howdo people perceive time? This book presents a wealth of contemporary andclassical research, including some of the history and philosophy of timeperception. Influential internal clock-based models of time perception receivean in-depth but non-technical introduction and discussion. The role ofcognition and emotion in perceiving time is also explored, as well as questionsderived from time experience in daily life, such as why time seems to pass morequickly in one situation rather than another. Classical and modern research ontiming in children is reviewed, as well as work on time perception and timeexperience in older people. Leading recent models of animal timing are alsodiscussed in a non-mathematical way.
