Marc Wittmann

Wittmann investigates the complex relationship between time perception and consciousness, revealing how our subjective experiences shape reality. His work primarily focuses on the intricate psychology behind how humans perceive and process time, weaving together insights from neuroscience and philosophy to present a comprehensive understanding of temporal perception. This exploration is vividly captured in his acclaimed book, "Felt Time: The Psychology of How We Perceive Time," where he delves into the subjective nature of time, transcending traditional disciplinary boundaries to offer innovative perspectives on human consciousness.\n\nIn addition to exploring time perception, Wittmann also extends his inquiry into altered states of consciousness, examining how these states influence our sense of time and self. Through his rigorous yet accessible writing style, Wittmann aims to demystify complex cognitive processes, making his research valuable not only to academic audiences but also to general readers interested in the profound mysteries of the mind. His book, "Altered States of Consciousness: Experiences Out of Time and Self," provides insights into how altered states can reshape our temporal experience, further advancing our understanding of consciousness itself.\n\nReaders gain from Wittmann’s work as it bridges the gap between scientific research and everyday experience, illuminating the fundamental connection between time and human existence. His books offer deep insights into the mechanisms of our mind, inviting readers to reflect on their own temporal experiences and how these shape their lives. Wittmann's scholarly contributions enhance the field of psychology, fostering a greater appreciation of the elusive dimensions of time and consciousness.
