Reviews

"This lively introduction to the psychology of time perception is an intriguing take on the fluidity of reality." - Publishers Weekly
Part history, part anecdotes, part research, part tips, Hammond's deep look into our conflicted, world-shaping involvement with money provides striking insights, sage advice, humor, and much food for thought. - Booklist
A comprehensive guide for bringing the power of money under control. In a practical, sometimes-amusing narrative, Hammond provides a valuable summary of work in psychology, behavioral economics, and more, and her numbered "Money Tips" are particularly helpful. A delightful treatment of a subject many of us would prefer to ignore, gently subversive in its undermining of preconceptions and prejudices. - Kirkus
an intriguing analysis of the psychology of money and the complexity of our relationship with it - Library Journal
Praise for Time Warped: "In Time Warped, Claudia Hammond...has a steady touch in conveying the research, adding user-friendly charm even to exhaustive descriptions of the mechanics of boredom. A chapter on visualization is particularly intriguing." - Jascha Hoffman, New York Times
"Fascinating...will change the way you think about time." - Financial Times
"A well-researched meditation on how we see the future.... There's one great question of time, one which of course this book cannot answer, but on which it gives a great deal of much-needed perspective: 'How much do I have left?'" - Slate
"A fascinating foray into the idea that our experience of time is actively created by our own minds and how these sensations of what neuroscientists and psychologists call "mind time" are created." - Maria Popova, BrainPickings
