Tooley, Michael - Time, Tense, and Causation

The view of time according to which the past and the present are real, but the future is not, is a very natural one. But it is also open to important objections, both philosophical and scientific. Can those objections be answered? I shall attempt to show that they can be, and that, in addition, there are in fact very good reasons for accepting this approach to the nature of time.
