In of time and lamentation, raymond tallis rises to this challenge and explores the nature and meaning of time and how best to understand itthe passage of time, the direction of time and time travel are critically examined and the relationship between mathematics and reality, and the nature of the observer, are exploredyet, physics has little or nothing to say about this time, the time as it is livedour temporal lives deserve a richer attention than is afforded by the equations of mathematical physicsvery good condition, apparently unreadthe first part of the book, "killing time" is a formidable critique of the spatialized and mathematized account of time arising from physical sciencepart 2, "human time" examines tensed time, the reality of time as it is lived: what we mean by "now", how we make sense of past and future events, and the idea of eternityquestions about "the stuff" of time  such as instants and intervals  about time and change, and the relationship between objective and subjective time, open on to wider discussions about time and causation, the irruption of subjectivity and intentionality into a material universe, and the relationship between time and freedomthinking about it is to meditate on our own mortalitythose, like tallis himself, who seek to find a place at which the scientific and humanistic views of humanity can be reconciled, will celebrate his placing of human consciousness at the heart of time, and his showing that we are "more than cogs in the universal clock, forced to collaborate with the very progress that pushes us towards our own midnight"for most of us, time is composed of mornings, afternoons and evenings and expressed in hurry, hope, longing, waiting, enduring, planning, joyful expectation and grief£ time's mysteries seem to resist comprehension and what remains, once the familiar metaphors are stripped away, can stretch even the most profound philosopherthe story told by caesium clocks, quantum theory and lorentz coordinates, tallis argues, needs to be supplemented by one of moss on rocks, tears on faces and the long narratives of our human journeywith the scientistic reduction of time set aside and lived time reaffirmed, tallis digs deeper into the nature of time itself in the final part, "finding time"see oxfam website for delivery information read moreoxfam bookshop stratford upon avon of time and lamentation by raymond tallis agenda publishing pp hardbackwith characteristic fearlessness, tallis seeks to reclaim time from the jaws of physicsfor anyone who has puzzled over the nature of becoming, wondered whether time is inseparable from change, whether time is punctuate or continuous, or even whether time, itself, is real, of time and lamentation will provoke and entertainthe culmination of some twenty years of thinking, writing and wondering about (and within) time, it is a bold, original and thought-provoking work

Through the analysis and design of a variety of buildings and projects, flesh is proposed as a concept that extends the meaning of skin, one of architecture's most fundamental metaphorsdifferent concepts of flesh are investigated, not only concerning the architectural and aesthetic, but also the biological aspectstoday's architecture has failed the body with its long heritage of purity of form and aesthetic of cleanlinessit seeks to challenge a common misunderstanding of skin as a flat and thin surfacea resurgence of interest in flesh, especially in art, has led to a politics of abjection, completely changing traditional aesthetics, and is now giving light to an alternative discussion about the body in architecturein a time when a pervasive discourse about the impact of digital technologies risks turning the architectural skin ever more disembodied, this book argues for a thick embodied flesh by exploring architectural interfaces that are truly inhabitablesee oxfam website for delivery information read moreoxfam shop castle street this is an "as new" paperback copy of the editionthis book is dedicated to a future vision of the body in architecture, questioning the contemporary relationship between our human flesh and the changing architectural fleshthese 'neoplasmatic' creations are identified as partly designed object and partly living material, in which the line between the natural and the artificial is progressively blurredthe latter is materialised in form of synthetic neoplasms, which are proposed as new semi-living entities, rather than more commonly derived from scaled-up analogies between biological systems and larger scale architectural constructshybrid technologies and interdisciplinary work methodologies are thus required, and lead to a revision of our current architectural practice
