Nahin tells the story of time travelling machines, both from the fictional, philosophical and the scientific point of view. He explains such issues as time travel into the future and the past and the paradoxes involved. The narrative is accompanied by numerous entertaining illustrations. Mathematical details are confined to Tech Notes at the end. Readers can pick and choose the chapters in which they are most interested. It is in my opinion still one of the most comprehensive books about time travel; an excellent spring board for further exploration of this fascinating topic.
This book explores the idea of time travel from the first account in English literature to the latest theories of physicists such as Kip Thorne and Igor Novikov. This very readable work covers a variety of topics including: the history of time travel in fiction; the fundamental scientific concepts of time, spacetime, and the fourth dimension; the speculations of Einstein, Richard Feynman, Kurt Goedel, and others; time travel paradoxes, and much more.
It is April 1st, 2038. Day 60 of China's blockade of the rebel island of Taiwan.
The US government has agreed to provide Taiwan with a weapons system so advanced that it can disrupt the balance of power in the region. But what pilot would be crazy enough to run…
Sean Carroll has a marvellous talent for explaining complex issues in a comprehensible way. The current book is Volume 1 of his series The Biggest Ideas in the Universe, devoted to Space, Time and Motion. This book (and the two volumes to follow) is written for people who are interested in the conceptual ideas, supported by some mathematics. He does not shy away from equations because he believes that even non-professionals can learn serious science rather than being satisfied with facile analogies. It is at times a slow read because it is a book about modern physics. But for everyone who wishes to learn more about space, time and motion, according to the theory of relativity, this book offers a bridge between popular science and the mathematical models of working physicists.
'Sean Carroll has achieved something I thought impossible: a bridge between popular science and the mathematical universe of working physicists. Magnificent!'
Brian Clegg, author of Ten Days in Physics that Shook the World
Immense, strange and infinite, the world of modern physics often feels impenetrable to the undiscerning eye - a jumble of muons, gluons and quarks, impossible to explain without several degrees and a research position at CERN.
But it doesn't have to be this way!
Allow world-renowned theoretical physicist and bestselling author Sean Carroll to guide you through the biggest ideas in the…
