Those, 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"questions 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 freedomfor most of us, time is composed of mornings, afternoons and evenings and expressed in hurry, hope, longing, waiting, enduring, planning, joyful expectation and griefwith characteristic fearlessness, tallis seeks to reclaim time from the jaws of physicsour temporal lives deserve a richer attention than is afforded by the equations of mathematical physicsthinking about it is to meditate on our own mortalityvery good condition, apparently unreadyet, physics has little or nothing to say about this time, the time as it is livedwith 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"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 journey£ time's mysteries seem to resist comprehension and what remains, once the familiar metaphors are stripped away, can stretch even the most profound philosophersee oxfam website for delivery information read moreoxfam bookshop stratford upon avon of time and lamentation by raymond tallis agenda publishing pp hardbackthe first part of the book, "killing time" is a formidable critique of the spatialized and mathematized account of time arising from physical sciencethe 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 exploredpart 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 eternityfor 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 entertainin of time and lamentation, raymond tallis rises to this challenge and explores the nature and meaning of time and how best to understand itthe culmination of some twenty years of thinking, writing and wondering about (and within) time, it is a bold, original and thought-provoking work

With an in-depth exploration of rule by a single man and how this was seen as heroic activity, the title challenges orthodox views of ruling in the ancient world and breaks down traditional ideas about the relationship between so-called hereditary rule and tyrannyit looks at how a common heroic ideology among rulers was based upon excellence, or arete, and also surveys dynastic ruling, where rule was in some sense shared within the family or clanprobing into ancient perspectives on the legitimacy and legality of rule, the title also explores the relationship between ruling and lawfinally, heroic rulers demonstrates that monarchy, which is generally thought to have disappeared before the end of the archaic period, remained a valid political option from the early iron age through to the hellenistic periodsee oxfam website for delivery information read moreheroic rulers examines reasons why both personal and clan-based rule was particularly unstable and its core tension with the competitive nature of greek society, so that the question of who had the most arete was an issue of debate both from within the ruling family and from other heroic aspirantslaw, personified as 'king' (nomos basileus), came to be seen as the ultimate source of sovereignty especially as expressed through the constitutional machinery of the city, and became an important balance and constraint for personal rule
