Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the historical relationship between time and place, the book delves into how local timekeeping was once tied to natural cycles before the advent of Standard Time zones in 1883, spurred by the expansion of railroads. Howard Mansfield examines the profound impact of technological advancements, such as the telegraph, on communities and their perception of time. This interconnectedness reshaped societal norms, creating a universal understanding of time that transformed daily life and interactions across distances.
