Es war schon immer der große Traum eines jedes Einzelnen durch die Zeit reisen zu können. Sei es aufgrund von Besichtungstouren an historische Orte in der Vergangenheit, zu wissenschaftlichen Zwecken, oder einer Änderung von Geschehnissen. Viele Menschen würden Zeitreisen aber wohl zur eigenen Bereicherung begehen. Wer würde sich nicht am liebsten die Zahlen der nächsten Lotto-Ziehung aus der Zukunft besorgen, oder mit sich selbst in der Zukunft telefonieren?

Dieses Buch beschäftigt sich mit Fragen in Bezug auf Zeitreisen und deren Durchführbarkeit, deren mögliche Nutzen und vor allen Dingen deren Auswirkungen. Immerhin gibt es jede Menge an interessanten Zeit-Paradoxien.
