How to Build a Time Machine
This look at time travel technology gives “a solid overview of some of the quirkier corners of physics, with an entertaining connection to pop culture” (Kirkus Reviews). In How to Build a Time Machine, physicist Brian Clegg provides an understanding of what time is and how it can be manipulated. He explores the fascinating speculations and the remarkable possibilities of real time travel that emerge from quantum entanglement, superluminal speeds, neutron star cylinders and wormholes in space. With the paradoxes of time travel echoing in our minds, will we realize that travel into the future might never be possible? Or will we realize there is no limit on what can be achieved, and take on this ultimate challenge? Only time will tell. “Dissects schemes such as going into the past and playing the stock market armed with foreknowledge of what will rise or fall. He covers most of the themes advanced by science fiction, plus some of the more adventurous scientific minds, generally avoiding math or tricky technical details.” —Kirkus Reviews “Explain[s] quantum entanglement and superluminal speeds in terms that even a technophobe could understand.” —Publishers Weekly “A genuinely intriguing book.” —Booklist “Clegg excels at making science accessible.” —Library Journal

With his unique knack for making cutting-edge theoretical science effortlessly accessible, world-renowned physicist Paul Davies now tackles an issue that has boggled minds for centuries: Is time travel possible? The answer, insists Davies, is definitely yes—once you iron out a few kinks in the space-time continuum. With tongue placed firmly in cheek, Davies explains the theoretical physics that make visiting the future and revisiting the past possible, then proceeds to lay out a four-stage process for assembling a time machine and making it work. Wildly inventive and theoretically sound, How to Build a Time Machine is creative science at its best—illuminating, entertaining, and thought provoking.
How to Build a Time Machine
Would you like to make a trip to the Moon, or build your own nuclear reactor? Have you ever wanted to travel through time? Well, here's your chance! Whether you're interested in cloning budgies or building black holes, the "How to" guides will tell you everything you need to know. These hands-on guides give you step-by step instructions on how to build a Moon rocket, clone a sheep, split the atom or make a time machine. And on the way to becoming a time traveller or nuclear genius, you can learn about the brilliant scientists who first made these incredible discoveries - and about the slightly less brilliant scientists who didn't.How to Build a Time Machine tells you everything you need to know to make your own time machine. The work of Einstein showed that time is not fixed: it can be stretched or compressed. And black holes, which are formed when huge stars explode, could give us a way to travel through time. Use this book to experiment with gravity, investigate worm holes - and build a working black hole!
