The Time Paradox

AirTalk for September 4, 2008

We tend to divide time into three categories: past, present and future. In their new book, "The Time Paradox," authors Philip Zimbardo and John Boyd suggest we all operate in a personal time zone that shapes our lives. Zimbardo and Boyd provide a plan to help "reclaim yesterday, enjoy today and master tomorrow" without putting too much emphasis on any one time zone. Larry speaks with co-author and Google research manager John Boyd.
