The 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 journeythose, 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"in of time and lamentation, raymond tallis rises to this challenge and explores the nature and meaning of time and how best to understand itoxfam bookshop stratford upon avon of time and lamentation by raymond tallis agenda publishing pp hardback£ time's mysteries seem to resist comprehension and what remains, once the familiar metaphors are stripped away, can stretch even the most profound philosopherour temporal lives deserve a richer attention than is afforded by the equations of mathematical physicsthe first part of the book, "killing time" is a formidable critique of the spatialized and mathematized account of time arising from physical sciencequestions 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 freedomthe culmination of some twenty years of thinking, writing and wondering about (and within) time, it is a bold, original and thought-provoking workfor most of us, time is composed of mornings, afternoons and evenings and expressed in hurry, hope, longing, waiting, enduring, planning, joyful expectation and griefyet, physics has little or nothing to say about this time, the time as it is livedthe 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 exploredwith 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"for 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 entertainpart 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 eternitysee oxfam website for delivery information read morewith characteristic fearlessness, tallis seeks to reclaim time from the jaws of physicsthinking about it is to meditate on our own mortalityvery good condition, apparently unread

Oxfam bookshop cheltenham "the history of the cold war has been the history of the world sincefor more than forty years, as this detailed analysis makes clear, the outcome of the cold war was in doubt" so begins this wide-ranging narrative by award-winning political commentator martin walker, which is the first major study of the cold warnow that it is over, it is crucial to our future to understand how the cold war has shaped us and, especially, to recognize it as the economic and political dynamic that determined the structure of today's global economyas the united states became the national security state, california, which had a population of five million at the start of the cold war, grew to thirty million and, by the s provided one in every ten members of congress and two presidentsthe cold war was more of a global conflict than was either of this century's two major wars; far more than a confrontation between states or even empires, it was, as martin walker puts it, "a total war between economic and social systems, an industrial test to destructionthe west continued to be alarmed by the prospect of defeat right up to the soviet empire's last breathusing newly opened kremlin archives and his own experiences in the field, martin walker has written a brilliant analysis of the conflict that has shaped the contemporary worldin the s the failure of détente and the west's economic crisis brought a new generation of dedicated anti-communists to prominencefrom the origins of the marshall plan, which revived europe after world war ii, and the strategic decision to rebuild a defeated japan into a bulwark against china to the collapse of the berlin wall, this authoritative work reveals how the west was built into an economic alliance that overpowered the soviet economy while also unleashing global economic forces that today challenge the traditional nation-statesee oxfam website for delivery information read moreat the end of the s the fear was generated by communist expansion into eastern europe and china; in the s by the prospect of defeat in vietnamwe also come to understand how the arms race caused new alignments and shifts in domestic power"walker reminds us how easy it is to forget that there were many occasions for the late s on when victory seemed far from assured, and that lent a particular urgency to the efforts of postwar western leaders
