Discover more questions, answers, and theories in this bumper book all about the past, present, future, and beyond! The Book of Time is brimming with fascinating information about the concept of time. ABOUTTIME! Time is a mysterious thing when you think about it. It feels very familiar yet when someone stops asking, “What is the time?” and instead asks, “What is time?” it can be very hard to explain. You can gain or lose time or have time to spare. Time is free but it can, at times, feel priceless. You can have too much of it and be bored, and not enough of it and be stressed. You cannot touch, taste, or smell time, but you can feel it passing. And although each minute, hour, and day are exactly the same length, you can feel some pass far more quickly or slowly than others. Time has been worshipped and studied, used as a tool and sold as a product, caused riots, and made people’s fortunes. This book looks at how time has been harnessed in history and some of the wild ways people kept track of time in the past. It shows how advances in measuring time changed the world and introduces some time titans who saved time, as well as those who wasted and tinkered with it.
