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 freedomthose, 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"the 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 unreadthe 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 journey

An adequate conception of nature would have to explain the appearance in the universe of materially irreducible conscious minds, as suchsince minds are features of biological systems that have developed through evolution, the standard materialist version of evolutionary biology is fundamentally incompleteno such explanation is available, and the physical sciences, including molecular biology, cannot be expected to provide onethe book explores these problems through a general treatment of the obstacles to reductionism, with more specific application to the phenomena of consciousness, cognition, and valuethe mind-body problem cannot be confined to the relation between animal minds and animal bodiesthe conclusion is that physics cannot be the theory of everythingoxfam bookshop preston in mind and cosmos thomas nagel argues that the widely accepted world view of materialist naturalism is untenablesee oxfam website for delivery information read moreif materialism cannot accommodate consciousness and other mind-related aspects of reality, then we must abandon a purely materialist understanding of nature in general, extending to biology, evolutionary theory, and cosmologyand the cosmological history that led to the origin of life and the coming into existence of the conditions for evolution cannot be a merely materialist history
