 Time, Conflict, and Human Values by J. T. Fraser, From the world's foremost authority on the interdisciplinary study of time comes this remarkable work on the intersection of time and human values. Moving easily among the realms of literature, philosophy, biology, physics, mathematics, ethics, art, and religion, J. T. Fraser excavates the foundations of human values and elucidates their role in the lives of individuals, societies, and the historical process. Positing that the need for human values arises from the necessity to control the unbounded imaginative powers of the mind, Fraser reveals time as an essential constituent of the principles of selection that determine values, rather than merely a backdrop against which the stability of values may be tested. Fraser shows that the true, the good, and the beautiful manifest the same nested hierarchy of freedoms, lawfulness, and causations that characterizes time itself. Over the course of history, Fraser argues, human values have served primarily not as conservative influences that promote permanence, continuity, and balance -- as commonly believed -- but as revolutionary forces that, in the long run, promote change by generating and sustaining certain unresolvable conflicts. Fraser delineates this process of destabilization, showing how the search for truth engenders and fosters changes in what is believed to be true; how moral judgments challenge the prevailing principles governing people's behavior; and how aesthetic judgments generate conflicts between the world as it exists and the world of our imagination. Suggesting that these conflicts combine to perpetuate the tension between our awareness of the finite nature of life and our dream of eternity, Fraser shows that thesearch for permanence through human values is the driving force for humankind's remarkable creativity as well as for its frightening destructiveness.
