Why has time sped up? Why is there never enough? How can you make it yours again? 'On Time' reveals why time sped up, why there never seems to be enough, and how to make it yours again.We have more time than ever - so why do we feel time poor? This is because our world is addicted to fast and we have become its servant. Instead of grasping the liberating potential of technology, many of us are stuck in a doomed race to outpace hurry. Catherine Blyth combines cutting-edge research in neuroscience and psychology with stories ranging from Leonardo da Vince to Anna Wintour, Kant, and Keith Richards, to reveal timeless truths about humanity's finest invention and how it shapes our lives.
