Synopsis
Although HG Wellsâ€s Victorian time machine would not have worked, there is no law of physics that prevents travel through the fourth dimension. Brian Clegg combines his enthusiasm for science fiction with his insights as a writer on real science to explore ways in which time travel could theoretically be achieved. He also traces the development of our modern understanding of time, from Einsteinâ€s first daydreams about the speed of light to neutrino experiments and the latest theories about wormholes.

Review
Brian Clegg conjectures on the totally conjectural world of time and space travel and brings it all beautifully down to earth. Brilliant -- Johnny Ball Clegg proves himself to be a lucid guide to the often complex science of time travel. His ambitious book covers more or less the whole of twentieth-century physics from relativity to string theory * Times Literary Supplement * Clegg's enjoyable exposition of how human time travel might be possible ... give[s] some unusually lucid scientific explanations * Guardian *
