A new book finds that there are essentially seven main ways people relate to time, from those who believe nothing will ever change, or that they will be rewarded in the an afterlife, or those who always look backward, or those who make to-do lists every day. In The Time Paradox: The New Psychology of Time That Can Change Your Life, author Dr. Philip Zimbardo and John Boyd (a Google researcher) detail the theory of internal time perspective and how it affects your life.

Also new is the third book in The Event Group series by David Lynn Goleman: Ancients. This one tackles how Atlantis was destroyed. Now the method used to do that has been unearthed, and The Event Group (led by Col. Jack Collins) must swoop in to save the day.
