Ten Time Travel Links

Ten Time Travel Links

  1. Modelling Time Travel in Fiction.
  2. NOVA on Time Travel.  (Includes Carl Sagan on Time Travel section)
  3. The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy on Time Travel.
  4. Brian's views on Time Travel--a painless, quick read.
  5. Professor Ronald Malett intends to build a Time Machine.
  6. Time Bandits--the best Time Travel Movie ever.
  7. How Stuff Works talks about Time Travel, or perhaps you'd prefer Time Travel in Physics.
  8. A nice introduction to currently trendy terms and theories for Time Travel. (With Graphics)
  9. List of Time Travel in Fiction at Wikipedia as well as a good discussion of the Mechanics of Time Travel itself, plus a Bonus: Another list of 2,916 works of fiction based upon the theme of Time Travel from SciFan, and another list at Online Books, and one more at Chrononautics.
  10. Adventures in the Fourth Dimension.
Bonus: We wanted to include Edmund Hamilton's pulp classic serial The Time Raiders, which originally appeared in Weird Tales during the late Twenties, but we couldn't locate an online copy, so here's a link to his excellent story The City at World's End instead. Hamilton's work is being re-issued by Haffner Press in a very nice set of collections.
