About the book
"The growing interest in fragmentalism is one of the most exciting topics in philosophy of time. Providing an extensive interpretation of this theory, Samuele Iaquinto and Giuliano Torrengo offer the first full-range exploration of its applications to research in metaphysics. Comparing contrasting views from those that deny the reality of the flow of time and those which admit it, they reveal how non-standard views about tense is changing the shape of the contemporary debate. In their defense of a framentalist theory of the passage of time, Iaquinto and Torrengo extend it from linear models to branching-time structures and articulate a novel account built on the connection between time and modality. Identifying the impact of fragmentalism on the relation between our selves and our perspective on reality, this much-needed study conveys the potential of a fragmentalist theory for contemporary metaphysics of time and debates about the self and morality."--
