Abstract

THIS stimulating and useful book, to which Prof. L. S. Stebbing contributes a short foreword, serves a double purpose: first, it puts before the reader, in comprehensive and concise form, the problems connected with the conception or experience or whatever we prefer to call it, of time ; and secondly, it attempts to contribute something towards their solution. The fundamental importance of these problems is now fairly generally realized, and it is with some surprise that we learn from Miss Cleugh how recently this realization has come. As a consequence, books such as this, dealing with the general subject, are very few in number, and a new one therefore calls for some attention.

Time:

and its Importance in Modern Thought. By M. F. Cleugh. Pp. x + 308. (London: Methuen and Co., Ltd., 1937.) 12s. 6d. net.
