Matias Slavov

Relational Passage of Time

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book defends a relational theory of the passage of time. It argues that the B-theory of time-and its close affiliate, the eternalist-relativistic account of time-does not predicate an utterly static view of reality.
