Beschreibung:

A core topic in metaphysics, time is also central to issues in the philosophy of science, the philosophy of mind and the philosophy of religion.Debates in the Metaphysics of Time explores these close philosophical connections and tackles the contemporary debates using an interactive approach.

Contributors put forward their views before commenting on the ideas of other contributors and defending against objections. Divided into ''metaphysics and time'', ''consciousness and time'' and ''God, time and human freedom'', chapters are organized around key questions, including:
How are we to understand the passage of time, or the ''change'' an event seems to undergo when it moves from the future to the present and then recedes into the more and more distant past?
Can we only be directly aware of what is momentary if we directly experience change and duration?
How is God related to time and is divine foreknowledge and human freedom compatible?

For students and researchers looking to understand the latest arguments in the philosophy of timeDebates in the Metaphysics of Time provides an original, up-to-date and accessible account of past, present and future debates.
