This work represents a guided tour to the interdisciplinary, integrated study of time. Through twenty-two connected essays, selected from the author's extensive writings, Time and Time Again advances new insights into understanding the nature of time seen through philosophy, the arts and letters, the sciences of matter, life, mind and society. Traditionally, attitudes to future, past, and present remained distinct for different cultures. But upon the globalizing earth, all cultural regions are now in instant by instant communication. There is a consequent turmoil about individual and collective identities and about value judgments, in all of which attitudes to time play crucial roles. The book explores this turmoil and, through its references, it also serves as a guide to the broadly spread literature about time.

'"Time and Time Again: Reports from a Boundary of the Universe" deserves to be regarded as a canonical work for humankind's journey into the 21st century. Like Hermann Hesse's Glass Bead Game master, Julius Thomas Fraser plays with the Study of Time with intellectual rigor and lyrical beauty. ' (B. Caithness)
Acknowledged to be the world’s foremost scholar of the interdisciplinary study of time, Dr J.T. Fraser (1923-2010) is the author of six volumes, some seventy articles in professional periodicals and editor of ten volumes addressing the integrated study of time. He is the founder of the International Society for the Study of Time (1966), founding editor of KronoScope - Journal for the Study of Time and has lectured extensively at home and abroad.
