520    $a Our engagement with time is a ubiquitous feature of our lives. We are aware of time on many scales, from the briefest flicker of change to the way our lives unfold over many years.

And to the extent that temporal reality is not as it seems, why does it seem that way? These are the central questions addressed by the author in this book.
