Now available in an updated addition:Integrating concepts of time derived from the physical sciences and world religions, The Becoming of Time examines various questions about time, including its origin, its relation to space and motion, its irreversible nature, the notion of timelessness, and the reality of the future. Lawrence W. Fagg contends that the use of spatial metaphors to describe time obscures its true character. He offers an alternative, non-spatial description of time by developing the concept of time as becoming.”This lucid and wide-ranging study sets out to reconcile the objective and subjective perspectives in the investigation of the phenomenon of time. [Lawrence W. Fagg] . . . explores the wondrous subtleties of time that modern physics continues to reveal, but complements them with the rich insights of the spiritual perspectives on time that the world's major religions have to offer.”—Helga Nowotny, Former President, International Society for the Study of Time”Lawrence W. Fagg has made a fundamental contribution to our reflection upon time. His work immediately takes its place as a basic text for students and researchers, from college to seminary and university levels.”—Philip Hefner, Director, Zygon Center for Religion and Science

One of four working documents which are the first publications to emerge from a detailed study of the implications of recent legislation for pupils with severe and complex learning difficulties by four special school teachers seconded by Manchester Education Committee to Manchester University in September 1989. The main thrust of the work has been to ensure equality of access for all pupils to a broadly based curriculum which incorporates the National Curriculum. From September 1990 all special schools, including those for pupils with severe and complex learning difficulties, are required by law to implement, the National Curriculum. These documents are designed to support practitioners in meeting this challenge.
