Description
Written by Guillaume *Duprat and Olivier *Carbonell / Translated by Yukari Endo When we are bored, time seems to drag on forever; when we are happy, it passes in a blink of an eye. The length of time each of us feels depends on our emotions at the time. But there is also the opposite [objective time]. [What time is it?] To answer this question, people have invented tools to measure time through trial and error. There are sundials that use the length of the shadow that changes every hour, mechanical clocks that combine gears, and atomic clocks that deviate by only one second every few hundred million years. ...... But wait a minute! Why is it necessary to measure time so precisely? In Europe, until around the 18th century, the exact same time was usable up to the point where you could hear the sound of church bells telling the time. In an age when most people lived their entire lives in the same village, it was not necessary to keep the time exactly the same all the way to faraway places. However, with the development of the railroads in the 19th century, telegraph networks were built along the railroads, and finally [the exact same time] could be used over a wide area. ...... This book is full of such fun stories of time! In addition, there is the time of life of living creatures, the time of our ancestors and descendants, and the time in our dreams...... This is a fun learning picture book filled with various secrets of time. Children and adults can learn science and logical thinking, and challenge the mysteries of time together. |
