具体描述
Time and Eternity deals with difficult issues in modern physics and brings them into relation with traditional theological doctrines. Craig has done a great work, and it is marvelous that now the philosophy of religion is engaging with the philosophy of science to the great benefit of both.

Time and Eternity offers a comprehensive discussion of the problems in the concepts of time and eternity on the basis of an extraordinary familiarity with a vast number of recent contributions to this issue from scientists and philosophers. The argument is subtle and precise. Particularly important are the sections on the impact of the different versions of relativity theory on the concept of time.... The book offers a plausible argument for a realistic conception of temporal process and for God's involvement in the temporal distinctions and processes because of His presence in His creation.

As a scientist doing theoretical research in gravitational physics and quantum cosmology, I found Dr. Craig's thoughtful book highly interesting. He has carefully given arguments defending several different viewpoints for each of the many issues about time that he discusses, followed by critiques in which he emphasizes his own opinion. Reading Time and Eternity has forced me to develop better arguments for my own opinions (which differ considerably from Craig's).... I am certain that Time and Eternity will also stimulate your thinking about this fascinating subject and your appreciation for the God who created time as part of the marvelous universe He has given us.

William Lane Craig is one the leading philosophers of religion and one of the leading philosophers of time. In this book, he combines his expertise in these areas to produce an original, erudite, and accessible theory of time and God that will be of great interest to both the general public and scholars. It is a rewarding experience to read through this brilliant and well-researched book by one of the most learned and creative thinkers of our era.
--Quentin Smith
Professor of Philosophy, Western Michigan University
In Time and Eternity, William Lane Craig defends the remarkable conclusion that "God is timeless without creation and temporal since creation." Craig argues his case philosophically by carefully weighing evidence for and against divine temporality and personhood in light of dynamic versus static theories of time and their warrants, in turn, in a Lorentzian interpretation of special relativity and an objective, mind-independent theory of becoming, including fascinating excursions into Big Bang cosmology and the philosophy of mathematics. As the latest in his series of ground-breaking books, Time and Eternity summarizes and extends Craig's previous technical arguments and conveys them to a more general audience. It is a must-read for anyone seriously interested in the problem of time and eternity in Christian philosophy.

The nature of time is a continuing source of puzzlement both to science and in everyday life. It is also an important issue in theological understandings of the nature of God. In this interesting book, Professor Craig tackles this complex set of topics in a clear way. His discussion of the interrelated scientific, philosophical, and theological issues clears up many previous misconceptions and proposes a plausible understanding of the relation of God to time and eternity that many will find helpful.

拿到这本《Time And Eternity》之后，我第一反应就是它不走寻常路。封面那种不落俗套的设计，没有花哨的图案，也没有浮夸的字体，而是用一种低调却充满力量的方式，传达出一种神秘感和厚重感。我一直偏爱那些在细节处见真章的书籍，而这本书的质感，无论是纸张的厚度，还是印刷的清晰度，都让我觉得它是一件值得珍藏的艺术品。光是拿在手里，就能感受到一种与众不同的力量。我迫不及待地想要知道，作者是如何将“时间”和“永恒”这两个抽象的概念，通过文字转化为具体可感的叙事。我脑海中浮现出各种可能性：或许是跨越几个世纪的家族史诗，或许是关于一段超越生死的爱情，又或许是对宇宙起源的深刻追问。无论如何，我都相信它会是一场智力与情感的双重盛宴。
评分这本书的封面设计就足以让人驻足，那种深邃的蓝色搭配古老而精致的字体，仿佛承载着无数时间的秘密，又预示着一段超越时空的旅程。我第一时间就被它所吸引，迫不及待地想要一探究竟。拿到书的那一刻，纸张的触感、油墨的清香，都散发着一种老派的魅力，让人觉得这并非是一本快餐式的读物，而是需要静下心来，细细品味的珍品。我尤其喜欢它那种略带复古的排版，字里行间都透着一种沉淀感，让人在阅读时，仿佛能穿越回某个年代，去感受那个时代的氛围。我非常期待它能为我带来一场前所未有的阅读体验，或许是关于某个被遗忘的历史片段，又或许是关于人类内心深处最隐秘的情感。我已经准备好将自己沉浸其中，让思绪随着书页的翻动而翩跹起舞，去发现那些隐藏在字句背后的深刻含义。
评分这本书的纸张触感让我感到意外的惊喜，厚实而带着一种自然的纹理，仿佛蕴含着岁月沉淀的温度。封面的设计更是让人爱不释手，简洁的线条勾勒出一种深远而宁静的意境，让人一眼望去，就能感受到一种超越时间的力量。我脑海中构想的，可能是一个关于记忆与遗忘的宏大叙事，亦或是一个关于生命轮回的哲学探索。它不像是那些追求轰轰烈烈情节的书籍，而是更倾向于在静默中展现深刻的洞察。我希望它能像一杯陈年的佳酿，越品越有味道，在字里行间，为我揭示关于时间与永恒的某种真相。这种期待，让我迫不及待地想要翻开第一页，开始这段未知的旅程。

评分这本书的标题本身就充满了哲学意味，“Time And Eternity”，这两者看似对立，却又紧密相连，引发了我对时间本质的无限遐想。它让我思考，我们所感知的时间，究竟是客观存在的线性流逝，还是主观意识的编织？永恒又意味着什么？是无尽的循环，还是超越时间的存在？我猜想，这本书或许会以一种独特的方式，去探索这些宏大而又飘渺的问题。它可能不是那种直白的哲学论述，而是通过引人入胜的故事、鲜活的人物，或者某种抽象的意象，来引导读者进行思考。我希望它能打开我思维的桎梏，让我从一个全新的角度去审视时间和生命，或许还能触及到一些关于存在意义的答案。这种对未知的好奇心，驱使我想要深入了解作者是如何驾驭如此深邃的主题，以及他/她所要传达的独特视角。
