Unlocking the Mysteries of Time Perception

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

An award-winning BBC podcast host "has a steady touch... adding user-friendly charm" to "intriguing" research on the psychology of time perception ( New York Times). Why does life seem to speed up as we get older? Why does the clock in your head move at a different speed from the one on the wall? Why is it almost impossible to go a whole day without checking your watch? Is it possible to retrain our brains and improve our relationship with it? In Time Warped, Claudia Hammond offers insight into how to manage our time more efficiently, how to speed time up and slow it down at will, how to plan for the future with more accuracy, and she teaches how to use the warping of time to our own benefit. "An ideal read for those looking for science-based theories of time perception without the scientific jargon.... Hammond demonstrates how life's circumstances can make minutes seem an eternity and decades the blink of an eye." - Library Journal "A well-researched meditation on how we see the future." - Slate "This lively introduction to the psychology of time perception is an intriguing take on the fluidity of reality." - Publishers Weekly "... a fascinating foray into the idea that our experience of time is actively created by our own minds and how these sensations of what neuroscientists and psychologists call "mind time" are created." -Maria Popova, The Marginalian
