Summary: Well-written but impractical
Comment: "Time Travel for Beginners" is a useful guide for someone making their first trip through time, but be warned: Even if you follow the author's instructions carefully, you may not end up in the time period and/or place you intended. I was trying to visit rural Manitoba in the 1930s, but because I skipped Chapter 4, I ended up in ancient Sumeria.
Boy, was I embarrassed!

Summary: Time Travel Fascination
Comment: This Irish author is a deep thinker. He investigates not only UFOs, those saucer shaped ships from outer space, but also the ultraviolet catastrophe, speaks about photons and electrons; what are Positrons in Space and Time? Hey, you can change your location in space without destroying the universe! It's just a forwards/backwards convergence of your future and your past, which happens in the presence. Hermann Hesse said similar things, but don't ask me right now in which of his books. The difference between Hermann Hesse and Mr. Brennan: the former took it from a buddhistic viewpoint, the latter from science. More Power to Mr.Brennan! Gerborg

Summary: I was unfortunately disappointed.
Comment: As someone who "gobbles" up anything related to timetravel/speculation/inconsistencies and so on, I was drawn to this book from the synopsis and the marketing premise that I considered (after reading) to be misleading. While the book does offer investigations into possible evidence of timetravel; it is only thrown in periodically throughout an otherwise boring read. In fact, I've read hundreds of books in the speculative nature and sadly, this is the ONLY ONE I haven't enjoyed.
