Challenging conventional views of time, this book examines how modern interpretations limit our understanding of temporal diversity. It argues that anthropology, despite its focus on cultural variation, often overlooks non-European concepts of time. The insights presented extend beyond anthropology, offering implications for various disciplines within the sciences, humanities, and social sciences. By critically analyzing the cultural assumptions surrounding time, it encourages a broader appreciation for diverse temporalities.
