Time Travel: A History by James Gleick

3.0

A short and mildly acidic history of the idea of time travel in the Western culture. Time travel is defined very broadly and includes things like time capsules or even memory. The book discusses mostly literature and to some extent film and philosophy. There's surprisingly little physics. It focuses mainly on the period since H. G. Wells, but there are a couple of digressions to St. Augustine, and such. 2.5 stars.
