What's the Name of That Book??? discussion

I believe this book was written within the last decade. It has a white cover with a clock on it with red arms or letters. It traces the concept of time from early human history through modern physics.

I read it and then gave it away. I want to read it again, but I can't remember the title. Any attempts to search for it inevitably lead to a barrage of Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time suggestions.

Any and all help greatly appreciated.

Maybe check this author?



Those are the closest covers I found:

Might this be Time in History: Views of Time from Prehistory to the Present Day?

I wonder if Shannon has found the book?

Thanks so much for your help, Ellie. It's none of those, though. Although, you did come up with some really great suggestions, given the description I provided. If I think of anything else, I'll definitely let you know. Is there a book I could help you find?

That's no it, Anna. Thanks so much for the suggestion, though.

One thing you could do, Shannon, is find the book that seems closest (in content) at your library, and look through the bibliography / suggested further readings in the back of that book.

In Search of Time: The Science of a Curious Dimension maybe?

Thanks, Cheryl, good idea.

That's it! Thanks so much!!
