With Time Travel in Einstein's Universe, the renowned astrophysicist J. Richard Gott leads time travel out of the world of H. G. Wells and into the realm of scientific possibility. This "thoughtful and entertaining romp through science fiction and ?real' science" (Sunday Times, London) will engage anyone interested in reading the surprising facts behind the popular fiction of time travel. "With an engaging literary style" (Science News), Gott explains how time travel can actually occur in the world of Einsteinian physics. He goes on to explain how travel to the future is not only possible but has already happened, and he contemplates whether travel to the past is also conceivable. Presented with Gott's characteristic humor and excitement, these theories are delightful and fascinating to read, and they are certain to linger in the mind long after readers have finished the book.
