520    This audiobook contains a broad overview of time travel in
       science fiction, along with a detailed examination of the 
       philosophical implications of time travel. The emphasis of
       this book is now on the philosophical and on science 
       fiction, rather than on physics, as in the author's 
       earlier books on the subject. In that spirit there are, 
       for example, no tech notes filled with algebra, integrals,
       and differential equations, as there are in the first and 
       second editions of Time Machines.  Writing about time 
       travel is, today, a respectable business. It hasn't always
       been so. After all, time travel, prima facie, appears to 
       violate a fundamental law of nature; every effect has a 
       cause, with the cause occurring before the effect. Time 
       travel to the past, however, seems to allow, indeed to 
       demand, backwards causation, with an effect (the time 
       traveler emerging into the past as he exits from his time 
       machine) occurring before its cause (the time traveler 
       pushing the start button on his machine's control panel to
       start his trip backward through time).  Time Machine Tales
       includes new discussions of the advances by physicists and
       philosophers that have appeared since the publication of 
       Time Machines in 1999, examples of which are the chapters 
       on time travel paradoxes. Those chapters have been brought
       up to date with the latest philosophical thinking on the 
       paradoxes.  "This work is an indispensable study for 
       scholars and fans of time-travel SF, and readers will gain
       a deeper insight into both the literary history of time 
       travel and the science involved."
