Description

Don Miller worries away at our concepts and shapes for time, the political, social, sporting and philosophical reach of metaphors into a temporality that is more than clocks. The chapters here illustrate different angles on the shifting of time, wearing away at the edifice of fixed time to show how fluid and fantastic our language of time can be. Barbara Adam has called the book a deeply reflexive and exhilarating study; Michael Dutton notes how the book hones in on the ethereal and the everyday quotidian yet paradoxically political character of timing; Scott McQuire knows how the texts style pushes readers to think in new ways; while Nikos Papastergiadis sees in this book nothing short of a whole new vision of time; Ida Sabelis stresses the ethical corrective to the tricks of control; while Richard Tanter acknowledges the myriad facets, surprising play and the illumination of the gifts of timing. The book does not demand that you find time to read it, but time will fly when you do. It addresses our contemporary moment with the long durรฉe of perspective and political nuance, so that sociologists and political economists will need to dwell in it as much as philosophers and realists will want to track and adjust their schedules. For the implied reader of this book the pace and timing of reading is critical, the student of life can find an up to the minute guide to thinking, but which minute, and how many minutes at the same time can there be? It is high time you read this book, since Don Miller has, once again, run on ahead.
