Pip-pip

A sideways look at time
by Jay Griffiths

"This is a book for those who suspect there's more to time than clocks - this is an infectiously enthusiastic argument for other, more extraordinary times, the diverse cycles of nature, of folk-tale or of carnival, when time is unlimited and on your side...Jay Griffiths examines the way past and future are seen; how modernity's speed damages nature's time; how women's time differs from men's and how children's time is different from either. Rejecting the idea that time is money, she asks rather whose money is made from whose time. This book should change the way we view time - forever."

Guaranteed to be one book which will never gather any dust. You will want to read, re-read and re-read again.
