Squee? The blurb for the article in The Economist sounded really interesting and rather important。 North Korea recently adjusted 1/2 hour off from Japan, or something?

David Rooney's About Time builds a compelling historical narrative for horology as a useful tool for understanding culture。 David Rooney's About Time builds a compelling historical narrative for horology as a useful tool for understanding culture。 。。。more

Nice book。 I like the topic and theme of the book。 Author did his research and presented it in an interesting way。 I got to know about many new things, events, people while listening to the book ( I listened to audio version of the book in Audible)。 I want my kids to read this book。 I felt book was very short and did not get enough of it。 Listening it again。 ;-)

Excellent book with wonderful thoughts that challenge our ways of seeing the way time has shaped us as a people, nation and world。
