Time and Space (PHI)
by Mário S. Ming Kong Maria do Rosário MonteiroThe texts presented in Proportion Harmonies and Identities (PHI) Time and Space were compiled to establish a multidisciplinary platform for presenting, interacting, and disseminating research. It also aims to foster awareness and discussion on Time and Space, focusing on different visions relevant to Architecture, Arts and Humanities, Design and Social Sciences, and its importance and benefits for the sense of identity, both individual and communal. The idea of Time and Space has been a powerful motor for development since the Western Early Modern Age. Its theoretical and practical foundations have become the working tools of scientists, philosophers, and artists, who seek strategies and policies to accelerate the development process in different contexts.

Time and Timelessness in Fundamental Physics and Cosmology: Historical, Philosophical, and Mathematical Perspectives (Fundamental Theories of Physics #216)
by Silvia De Bianchi Marco Forgione Laura MarongiuThis book offers a clear account of timelessness together with the discussion of temporality in fundamental physics and cosmology. The multi-disciplinary approach to the problem of time and timelessness shows the remarkable difference between pre-relativistic debates and current developments. This book thoroughly discusses notions of timelessness and time emerging in the most recent literature on Quantum Gravity, String Theory and Cosmology. The contributions explore, among many aspects, the historical-philosophical roots of the notions of temporality and atemporality, the role of mathematics in defining time and temporality with respect to both order relations and causality, approaches to quantum gravity and cosmology that make use of quantum fluids and condensate to approximate space–time in general relativity, time and timelessness in black holes and the problem of cosmological time in bouncing cosmologies. The novelty of this volume lies in the interaction among scientists, philosophers, and historians in exploring the nature of time and timelessness and the origin of these concepts. The book represents a valuable toolkit for researchers and graduate students in physics, cosmology, philosophy and the history of those fields.
Time and Trauma in Analytical Psychology and Psychotherapy: The Wisdom of Andean Shamanism
by Deborah BryonThis book explores the experience of time in psychoanalysis and Andean shamanism. It plots ways to work through unresolved trauma by expanding how we conceptualize both implicit and nonverbal atemporal experience, drawing from the rituals, narratives, and medicine of Andean shamans and quantum theory.Shifting between subjective states in time is fundamental in trauma work and psychoanalysis. Integrating traumatic experiences that have become split off and held in “timeless” unconscious states of implicit memory is an essential aspect of psychic healing. Becoming familiar with the Andean shamans’ understanding of atemporal experience, as well as learning about their ways of “grounding” the experience consciously, can offer a route through which psychoanalysis and therapy may deepen the therapeutic process and open new states of consciousness. Theories developed in quantum physics are included to parallel the shamans’ experience and for describing the analytic process.Written by a noted expert in this field, this insightful volume will interest trainee and practitioner analytical psychologists, as well as any professional interested in the resolution of trauma within a psychotherapeutic setting.
Time for Magic: A Shamanarchist's Guide to the Wheel of the Year
by Philip Carr-Gomm John Marchant Jamie Reid Stephen EllcockPunk meets Druidry in the only trade edition of Jamie Reid's art, weaving c.180 radical art images into the structure of the pagan Wheel of the Year.

Jamie observed these festivals, holding rituals at his allotment in Liverpool, and focused on this theme in his later paintings. This book features key Wheel of the Year artworks as well as famous earlier pieces, including the pre-punk, Situationist-inspired agit-prop and the work he produced for the Sex Pistols. Curator Stephen Ellcock has selected the art and in his own inimitable creative style arranged it into season-themed chapters, as well as finding images of Druidic ceremonies held by Jamie&’s great-uncle, Chief Druid George Watson MacGregor Reid.Stephen Ellcock in conversation with John Marchant introduces Jamie&’s life, legacy and love of making trouble; John Marchant provides captions giving deep insight in Jamie&’s work; and Philip Carr-Gomm writes about the Wheel of the Year and how it can help us find a new way of being in this era of climate crisis.
Time for Us
by Rebecca WalkerThe first ever children's book by bestselling writer, feminist, and activist Rebecca Walker tells an endearing story of mother and son set on the island of Maui in Hawai'i.Six-year-old Jackson is bored, but his mama is too busy working to play with him. Jackson is patient until his favorite time of day—when his mama spends time with him. They step outside their front door into a magical garden of delicious banana and mango trees, and lush purple jacarandas. They sample the fruit, look up at the clouds, and learn about the world around them together. The story is accompanied by facts to expand the reader's knowledge and bring the natural world to life, such as how many bananas a tree produces and how ants build their homes.Written by award-winning author Rebecca Walker, and drawing on her own personal experience of being a mother to her son, this charming story draws on the theory that just 20 minutes of quality time a day, between caregiver and child, nurtures and benefits their relationship in many different ways. The book will be fully illustrated by an artist who can bring to life the beautiful characters and luscious tropical setting of the book.
Time in Control Theory: On Concepts, Measures and Uses (Synthesis Lectures on Electrical Engineering)
by Blas M. VinagreControl Theory is an interdisciplinary field of engineering and mathematics that studies the behavior of dynamic systems with external stimuli and how to modify such behavior through feedback, and the very concept of dynamic system implies the study of how the trajectories of a point in a geometric space evolve in time. Thus, time is at the very foundation of control theory, and its development and achievements are conditioned both by the conception we have of it and by our way of measuring and using it. Following a quasi-chronological order, this work aims to give an overview of how these conceptions and these ways of measuring and using time are reflected in the paths followed by control theory from its origins to the present day.
Time in Practice: Temporality, Intersubjectivity, and Listening Differently
by Mary Lynne EllisTime in Practice: Temporality, Intersubjectivity, and Listening Differently is an original exploration of diverse ways in which individuals ‘live’ time, consciously and unconsciously. Challenging the psychoanalytic emphasis on the past as determinative, Mary Lynne Ellis explores the significance of present and future dimensions of individuals’ experiences which catalyses change in the analytical relationship. Through critical analyses of the theorizing of Freud, Jung, Klein, Winnicott, and Lacan, Ellis highlights the limitations of spatial metaphors, binaries of ‘inner’/‘outer’, in addressing the socio-political and historical specificity of patients’ experiences, including questions of identity and discrimination. She explores how intersectional and interdisciplinary perspectives allow for the development of new interpretations of temporality/intersubjectivity/language/embodiment in analytical practices. Ellis reflects on the dynamism of conceptualizations emergent in autobiography, fiction, phenomenological and postmodern philosophy, gender, post-colonial, queer, and cultural studies, for contemporary relational psychoanalytic practices. This revised and updated edition includes discussion of experiences of loss, vulnerability, mortality, inequalities, and powerlessness associated with the profound impact of the spread of the coronavirus, climate change, and the Ukraine war. It also includes a new chapter on mourning, time, and identities. The book will be of interest to psychotherapists, art therapists, counsellors, psychologists, and those working in the fields of gender, sexuality, class, race, and post-colonial studies, literature, and allied disciplines.
Time of Silence
by Luis Martín-SantosA young cancer researcher ventures through the streets, slums, and subcultures of Francoist Madrid in this widely roving, linguistically inventive novel—a sort of Spanish Ulysses, but infused with the grotesquerie and dark comedy of Goya—available here in a new translation and with previously censored material restored.This novel of abortion and murder set in the squalor of the first decade of General Franco&’s dictatorship follows a few days in the life of Don Pedro, a cancer research scientist with Nobel ambitions. His dallying with literary and philosophical coteries, his hunt for the right strain of experimental mice in Madrid&’s slums, and the table talk at his boardinghouse are depicted here with anything but the social realism one might expect of a mid-twentieth century Spanish novel. Instead, Luis Martín-Santos presents us with an altogether innovative stream of consciousness, unfurling a lyrical yet jaundiced tableau of a society hitting rock bottom after years of authoritarian rule.Published in 1962, Time of Silence is a masterpiece of modern Spanish fiction. Its vision of depressed individuals struggling to survive makes it a fictional fleur du mal for our times. Martín-Santos draws on the black humor of Goya and the wit of Joyce to create a picture of a world beyond hope, redeemed solely by genial self-mockery. Peter Bush's new translation gloriously restores all that was previously axed by Spanish censors.

Timeboxing: The Power of Doing One Thing at a Time
by Marc Zao-SandersThe gloriously simple practice of choosing one thing to do, when to do it, and getting it done.Every day, a billion knowledge workers wake up, gravitate towards a pixelated screen and process information for eight hours or more, facing an endless and bewildering array of work and life choices. We’re confronted with countless always-on options; untimely, unsolicited notifications; and a constant competition for our attention. This depletes our faculty for choosing the right things to do, leading millions to become perplexed, frazzled, anxious, or depressed.Timeboxing by Marc Zao-Sanders is a comprehensive guide to carefully and intentionally selecting what to do, specifying start and finish times, focusing solely on that single activity, and getting it done to an acceptable standard within that timeframe. This is the fundamental, transcendent time-management practice; countless luminaries, from Carl Jung and Albert Einstein to Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, have employed some form of it in their daily lives. Zao-Sanders provides an informative and accessible look at every aspect of this revolutionary method– how to do it consistently, and how to do it well.Timeboxing offers guidance on what you can, should, and will do at any given moment. This pragmatic and life-changing practice of intentional daily activity has been proven to yield what almost every human being wants most: a chosen, cherished life.
Timeless Vision: Understanding God's Creation through the Lens of Science
by Jim JohnsonFaith and facts are reconciled in this revelatory examination of biblical and secular truths that follows the path to God through science, not around it. Always a man of science, Jim Johnson accepted Christ into his life shortly after his fiftieth birthday. This acceptance of God&’s unseeable power did not shake his belief in science—it strengthened it. Through years of research on the world&’s evolution, Johnson found that in studying every new hypothesis and theory, he believes even more in God&’s universal role.Timeless Vision: Understanding God&’s Creation through the Lens of Science bridges the gap between faith and science. Johnson examines the natural progression of Earth&’s creation alongside the seven biblical days, explains the conundrum of time, and expands upon the ever-evolving relationship humanity has with science and religion. Through analyzing scripture with detailed data and using science to bolster Christian beliefs, Johnson reveals just how rare and privileged Earth and human life truly are. It is through studying science and faith together, not apart, that we can see how God&’s plan was developed and why He did it. One is not complete without the other. Let Johnson lead you down the path less traveled—the one of science and faith—and show how God gave humanity these ways to discover Him more fully and completely.
