Time Machine Tales
Author: Paul J. Nahin
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319488643
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 423
Book Description
This book contains a broad overview of time travel in science fiction, along with a detailed examination of the philosophical implications of time travel. The emphasis of this book is now on the philosophical and on science fiction, rather than on physics, as in the author's earlier books on the subject. In that spirit there are, for example, no Tech Notes filled with algebra, integrals, and differential equations, as there are in the first and second editions of TIME MACHINES. Writing about time travel is, today, a respectable business. It hasn’t always been so. After all, time travel, prima facie, appears to violate a fundamental law of nature; every effect has a cause, with the cause occurring before the effect. Time travel to the past, however, seems to allow, indeed to demand, backwards causation, with an effect (the time traveler emerging into the past as he exits from his time machine) occurring before its cause (the time traveler pushing the start button on his machine’s control panel to start his trip backward through time). Time Machine Tales includes new discussions of the advances by physicists and philosophers that have appeared since the publication of TIME MACHINES in 1999, examples of which are the chapters on time travel paradoxes. Those chapters have been brought up-to-date with the latest philosophical thinking on the paradoxes.

Flynn Tales
Author: Linda L Flynn
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781732186408
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
Flynn Tales is comprised of two stories providing rich insight into fascinating family history through anecdotes relating to travel. One set in 1954, tells of leaving the US with few plans other than what ship they were traveling on and the first few stops of the trip. Bess and her husband confront common travel experiences of the time; you might encounter similar happenings while traveling in a foreign country where you don't understand the language. They traveled before the conveniences of modern technology and relied on letters sent through the post and contact with various travel offices. Europe was a land of many borders and different currencies; this and their advanced years added to the complexity of the trip. You'll confront common travel experiences of the time and find some impressions have changed little. The second story takes place in the mid-1930s. It's the story of Jimmy Flynn; a casual statement shared with his family and a series of serendipitous events that propelled him on a journey beyond his expectations. He encountered hard work, different cultures and economic classes. He shares the story of his exploits with you from a trip that opened the door to his independence and was to become the first of many exciting and unique adventures in his life.
