The really new element of this book is GITT's proposal of aplication of his five information-theoretic elements of statistics, sintax, semantics, pragmatics and apobetics to time. This strategy, along with the invocation of some of most relevant verses of the Bible on the subject of time, makes this book very precious for those who want to appreciate more this relevant resource that the Creator has made available to us.
