About this ebook

Most scientists today seem to agree that Time is still a mystery. Also some of the things we do know about it now must seem weird , if not crazy, to the uninformed. For example, it’s a fact that a clock runs faster upstairs than it does downstairs, and a lot faster if you put it up in an Earth Satellite. However, the hard part to accept is the fact that it’s time itself that changes, not the clock. That statement may seem confusing, but atomic clocks on earth and in space have proved it. Our Global Positioning Satellite systems wouldn't give us accurate ground positions if the effect was not adjusted for in the calculations.

This fascinating book explores most of the paradoxes that would occur when time traveling e.g. What would happen to you now, if you had a fatal accident while visiting the past. How about returning slightly earlier many times and bringing back something valuable many times over? How about getting Shakespeare to save time by giving him a copy of his collected works? How about going to the bank with the same dollar bill, and finding everyone in the queue is you too!

The quirky tales illustrating the author's conclusions include:
Time to Survive – The perils of short term travel.
Testing Time – Some trips might be unexpected.
Timely Encounter - How to escape justice..?
Tomorrow the World – If only you could go back..!
Long Term Future – A safer way to proceed, maybe?
It’s Twisting Time – With a replication machine.

Tony Thorne MBE

I am an Englishman, born and technically educated in London, England, and now living in Austria; but in the winter, in the warmer Canary Island of Tenerife. I originally qualified as a Chartered Design Engineer, specializing in Applied Physics products. For developments in the field of low temperature (cryo)surgery instruments, and very high temperature (carbon fibre) processing furnaces, the Queen awarded me an MBE. Earlier in life I also wrote and sold science-fiction and humorous stories, was an active SF Fan, and a spare time lecturer for the British Interplanetary Society. Now retired I write quirky speculative fiction; mostly tall Science Fiction and Macabre tales, with over 100 short stories published in various collections, including MACABRE TALES, THE BEST OF THE TENERIFE TALL TALES, THE JUNIOR PHILOSOPHY SOCIETY, BEST SELLING AUTHOR PLAN etc.. The first 4 volumes in my near future, 5 stars SF espionage series for general readers, POINTS OF VIEW, are now available from Amazon, Smashwords etc. My best selling title, THE SINGULARITY IS COMING, is published in English and Chinese versions.
