"What is time? The fifth-century philosopher St Augustine famously said that he knew what time was, so long as no one asked him. Introducing time tackles this question and dares go where Augustine would not. It traces the history of time from Augustine's suggestion that there is not time, to the flowing time of Newton, the conventional time of Poincaré, the static time of Einstein, and then back, full circle, to the idea that there is no time in quantum gravity"--P.
