It's About Time: Science Harmonized with Religion
Where We Are in God's Time
Is there a realm known as God's Time or an Eternity-Domain?
What about Man's Time?
What about Transcendental Time?
Where are we in Time?
The concept of time is one of those things we humans take entirely for granted. Few people ever dedicate the effort to learn what time is.
It's about time we became aware of the ideas that bind us to the eternal. This isâaccording to the authorâthe most exciting time in the history of the planet, and we are living it!
David W. Allan is one of the world's most renowned scholars in the world of horology (the study of time). His writings come from a decidedly Latter-day Saint perspective. While he does not recruit or admonish readers in any way, he cites his tradition and occasionally refers to the scriptures that inform his belief system. David has discovered there is far more common ground between Latter-day Saints, Christians, and Jews than most would have ever imagined. From this expanse of common ground, he appeals to his readers to consider the entire package by asking each reader to bring his or her "truth" to the discussion and see if his remarkable breakthroughs cannot add a new dimension to it.
This book is witness that truth is not the domain of any one religion or sect but rather we all have elements of the larger truth to share with one another. The author encourages all to read it and see if it does not "ring" true to your heart. He also encourages those of his faith to explore his findings in the same way he invites readers of all faiths or no faith at all.
Truly the dimension of time is an exciting frontier filled with new insights for all those willing to explore its depths.

About the author
As an atomic clock physicist, David W. Allan has been measuring time for over 5 decades. He has sliced the second into billionths, quadrillionths, and even smaller. Such precision has enabled developments like GPS and cellular communication, which we all know. The author's devotion to learning and the pursuit of truth has revealed a surprisingly strong connection between things spiritual, scientific, physical, political, historical, and mental.
