Part I. The presentist manifesto. When am I? --; A theory of presentism --; Some outstanding problems for presentism met --; Transtemporal relations (III): causation --; Part II. Presentism and relativity. Physics for philosophers --; The present dialectic in special relativity --; Becoming inflated --; All the time in the worlds: Gödel's modal moral.
How can we talk meaningfully about the past if it does not exist to be talked about? What gives time its direction? Is time travel possible? Presentism, the view that only the present exists, was a much neglected position in the philosophy of time for a number of years. This book contributes to the debate on the future of presentism.
