SOLVED. History book on clocks and time measurement: water clocks, sun clocks and year calendars (created from sun and moon clocks). [s]

[Maria]

I started reading this book twice, first it was around 10 years ago and last about 5 years ago. I have tried to find it under "Hunters of time", "Time keepers" and things like that. The genre is History. It starts from water clocks, sun clocks, moon clocks... describing the importance of these clocks for agriculture and normal life. Then describes the calendars and how these are a reflection of both sun and moon clocks.
I really I don't remember more details but I do remember that it was quite amazing and interesting topic.
Thanks in advance!

About Time: A First Look at Time and Clocks by Bruce Koscielniak (published ~9 year ago) or From Sundials to Atomic Clocks: Understanding Time and Frequency by James Jespersen? Was it more of an adult book or written for kids?

Maybe The History of Time: A Very Short Introduction?

Hi Memp and Seth! Thanks a lot for your suggestions. I think Seth is correct saying the book might be The History of Time: A Very Short Introduction by Leofranc Holford Strevens. Thanks a lot for your help ^^
