Here, in the middle of this book, a modification to the manner of description is needed. This book Zeit und Wissen [1981, Time and Knowledge: ZW] was announced as a philosophical reflection supplementary to the portrayal of physics in Aufbau der Physik [AP 1985, trans. The Structure of Physics 2006: SP].
