SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Has material civilization spun out of control, becoming too fast for our own well-being and that of the planet? This book confronts these anxieties and examines the changing rhythms and temporal organization of everyday life. It also looks at questions of coordination and disruption; cycles and seasons; and the interplay between power and freedom.
