Time offers a comprehensive history of the philosophy of time in western philosophy from the Greeks through to the twentieth century.

* analytic philosophy including philosophers such as McTaggart and Mellor
* phenomenology Husserl and Heidegger
* a distaff tradition which Turetzky identifies as including Bergson and Deleuze.
