There are three men whose contributions helped free science from the straitjacket of theology. Two of the three-Nicolaus Copernicus and Charles Darwin-are widely known and heralded for their breakthroughs. The third, James Hutton, never received the same recognition, yet he profoundly changed our understanding of the earth and its dynamic forces. Hutton proved that the earth was likely millions of years old rather than the biblically determined six thousand, and that it was continuously being shaped and re-shaped by myriad everyday forces rather than one cataclysmic event. In this expertly crafted narrative, Jack Repcheck tells the remarkable story of this Scottish gentleman farmer and how his simple observations on his small tract of land led him to a theory that was in direct confrontation with the Bible and that also provided the scientific proof that would spark Darwin's theory of evolution. It is also the story of Scotland and the Scottish Enlightenment, which brought together some of the greatest thinkers of the age, from David Hume and Adam Smith to James Watt and Erasmus Darwin. Finally, it is a story about the power of the written word. Repcheck argues that Hutton's work was lost to history because he could not describe his findings in graceful and readable prose. (Unlike Darwin's Origin of the Species, Hutton's one and only book was impenetrable.) A marvelous narrative about a little-known man and the science he founded, The Man Who Found Time is also a parable about the power of books to shape the history of ideas.

"Chronicles of Temporal Discovery" invites you to traverse the corridors of time in a spellbinding tale where the past, present, and future intertwine in an intricate dance. At the heart of this riveting narrative lies the enigmatic Key of Chronos ‒ a mysterious artifact that thrusts our protagonist, Evelyn, into the profound mysteries of time travel. As Evelyn grapples with the potentials and pitfalls of the time-travel device, the story unfolds with each chapter. From her ventures into significant historical events to poignant encounters with future selves, she faces ethical dilemmas that reverberate through the cosmic tapestry. Yet, the journey is not without adversaries; the introduction of the Time Police adds a layer of tension, turning the exploration of time into a high-stakes venture. The narrative takes unexpected turns, exploring the paradoxes of time and delving into the intricacies of love that transcend epochs. Parallel universes open up infinite possibilities, while political machinations in a society controlling time travel add a layer of complexity to Evelyn's quest. Yet, as Evelyn pushes the boundaries of temporal manipulation, the toll on her health and sanity becomes evident. Temporal sickness becomes a haunting specter, leading her to a transformative journey within herself, where the echoes of past actions come to the forefront. The climactic confrontation approaches, where Evelyn must face the ultimate challenge ‒ a showdown that decides the very fate of time itself. Will she emerge triumphant against a malevolent force seeking to disrupt the cosmic dance, or will the delicate threads of time unravel into chaos? "Chronicles of Temporal Discovery" is a mesmerizing tapestry woven with adventure, romance, ethical quandaries, and the inexorable march of time. Join Evelyn on an epic exploration through the ages, where the discovery of the Key of Chronos is only the beginning of an enthralling journey that will leave you questioning the nature of existence itself. Dive into this gripping tale and be prepared for a temporal odyssey like no other.

This investigation of time and space is motivated by gaps in our current understanding: by the lack of definitions, by our failure to appreciate the nature of these entities, by our inability to pin down their properties. The author's approach is based on two key ideas: The first idea is to seek the geo-historical origins of time and space concepts. A thorough investigation of a diversified archaeological corpus, allows him to draft coherent definitions; it furthermore gives clues as to whether time and space were discovered or invented. The second idea is to define the units before trying to define space and time. The results presented here are unexpected: Time and space were not discovered in nature, but they were invented; time is not a phenomenon and space has no materiality; they are only concepts. This runs contrary to the opinion of most scientific and the philosophical authorities, although one would seek in vain for a theoretical validation of the conventional position. This book will provide much food for thought for philosophers and scientists, as well as interested general readers.
