What time is this place?

Cambridge, MIT Press [1972]

viii, 277 pages illustrations 24 cm

A look at the human sense of time, a biological rhythm that may follow a different beat from that dictated by external, "official," "objective" timepieces. Time and Place - Timeplace - is a continuum of the mind, as fundamental as the spacetime that may be the ultimate reality of the material world. Kevin Lynch's book deals with this human sense of time, a biological rhythm that may follow a different beat from that dictated by external, "official," "objective" timepieces. The center of his interest is on how this innate sense affects the ways we view and change - or conserve, or destroy - our physical environment, especially in the cities.
