TIME TRAVEL - JAMES GLEICK KARTONIERT (TB)

Best Books of 2016 BOSTON GLOBE * THE ATLANTIC From the acclaimed bestselling author of The
Information and Chaos comes this enthralling history of time travel-a concept that has
preoccupied physicists and storytellers over the course of the last century. James Gleick
delivers a mind-bending exploration of time travel-from its origins in literature and science
to its influence on our understanding of time itself. Gleick vividly explores physics 
technology  philosophy  and art as each relates to time travel and tells the story of the
concept's cultural evolutions-from H.G. Wells to Doctor Who  from Proust to Woody Allen. He
takes a close look at the porous boundary between science fiction and modern physics  and 
finally  delves into what it all means in our own moment in time-the world of the instantaneous
with its all-consuming present and vanishing future.
