Introducing Time is one of the Introducing series most popular selections. Fortunately, Craig Callender (dig the name!) has made the subject (or at least the most relevant views and issues) easier to understand in this superb little book. For an Introducing book it is also one of the most detailed, thought provoking, wide-ranging and heady science volumes around. If you want to know anything about time then Introducing Time does just that and then some more, but be prepared for lots of difficult diverse thinking. He begins by surveying what may be considered different types of time, including our psychological experience of temporal succession, measured time, and biological time.
