A Geography of Time Summary

A Geography of Time by Robert Levine

Although it is hard to remember in our clock-driven age, the concept of time is relative and flexible. Robert Levine points out that a cultures sense of time has profound consequences for an individual's psychological, physical, and emotional well-being. Travelling around the glope, in both past and present times, he describes clock time in opposition to both nature time - the rhythm of the sun and the seasons - and event time - the structuring of time around happenings. He argues that by learning to embrace these three different perceptions of time, by developing a multi temporal approach, one can enjoy a more flexible and rewarding life.
