I'm currently reading Time Out of Joint. |
Well, at least I've got some reading to do.
I heard of the premise of The Man who Folded Himself. Its where a man becomes his own father, mother and mentor. I read the premise in Michio Kaku's
Hyperspace which is also a good read.
The main thing I think can be said about time travel--it aint easy to understand.
Regarding Hawkings books, do you think there is such a thing as a built-in 'policeman' in order to prevent time travel? It would certainly be a bit of a problem for those of us who'd like to murder their grandfather, wouldn't it?
