The compiler of Time: A Bibliographic Guide (Garland, 1991) used that reference "to locate the subjects which have been energized by a concern with time, to identify their relationships with other such subjects, and to help in identifying appropriate articles and potential authors." The result is this accessible encyclopedia which contains some 360 signed, time-related articles exploring topics in the areas of aging, archaeoastronomy, archaeology, art, film, and telecommunications, astronomy, biology, economics, geography, geology, history, horology, law, literature, mathematics, medicine, music, philosophy, physics, political science, psychology, religion, sociology, sports, time management, and time's measurements and divisions.
