Book presentation "Horizons of science. vol. II: Histories of time."
Yu. Holovatch, Ya. Hrytsak, B. Novosyalyj (editors). Horizons of science. vol. II: Histories of time. Lviv, UCU Publishing House, 2020, 176 p. ISBN 978-617-7637-22-5 (in Ukrainian).
This book is the second in a series of essays based on lectures given at the monthly seminar "Horizons of Science". The book contains a selection of articles devoted to the topic of time - as understood by various disciplines: astronomy, physics, theology, philosophy, psychology, sociology, linguistics, semiotics, history. The concept of time is difficult to formalize, even within the framework of one discipline. How our present understanding of time was formed and whether a common language between representatives of different sciences is possible while discussing this notion - these and similar questions are being sought by the authors of this book.
