Future of Spacetime Hawking Stephen William (2003)

Our minds tell us that some things in the universe must be true, but new physics shows that they are not, blurring the line between science and science fiction. This collection presents six accessible essays by writers who explore that boundary while moving further into the discovery of natures patterns, for readers fascinated by the deepest mysteries of the universe. It includes Richard Prices An Introduction to Spacetime Physics, Stephen Hawkings Chronology Protection, Igor Novikovs Can We Change the Past?, Kip S. Thornes Speculations about the Future, Timothy Ferriss On the Popularization of Science, and Alan Lightmans The Physicist as Novelist.
