Time without clocks.

Staddon and Higa show that the ability to time events derives
from principles of memory rather than from an internal device for
measuring the duration of events. This insightful timing theory
is parsimonious, fits the data, has potential widespread
generality, and is evolutionarily plausible.
Key words: timing theory, temporal control, memory, internal
clock
