Updating Bergson - A Philosophy of the Enduring Present

This book argues for an actualist and presentist reading of Bergson’s philosophy of time. Instead of the past or future, what matters is the self-realization of diverse durations. Through both philosophical and interdisciplinary means, Adam Lovasz actualizes Bergson’s work and brings it into dialogue with contemporary scientific debates.
