are in close succession. If, however, we could perceive time directly, the nature of

The difficulty is one of temporal transition, which has no analogue in pure

Important as Einstein's theory is for our understanding of time, it presupposes that
the observer is aware of temporal succession in his experience. If we wish to
define time order in terms of causal order, instead of making it solely dependent
