A Very Detailed Book

I've read alot of books about space, but this is the most detailed space book I've ever read. The part about time machines and black holes was confusing but very interesting. I had no idea it was possible to make a time machine, or is it? This book may not be right on everything but I trust it. I trust all the books I read (not including fiction books). The part about the box and the light going through was really interesting. I don't get everything in the book, but I still liked it.

This book is extrodinary (and makes you think a lot.)

Eyewitness Time & Space tells about many time theorys as well as space theorys (actually, they are one, also known as "spacetime" as it metions in the book.) This book tells about the history of time and space and how people have dealed with it over the milleniums and centuries, bio-space and bio-time, and spacetime laws. It even talks about going "across the universes". This means there are parallel dimensions happening trillions at a time when someone makes a choice and goes up that "root" in time, also known as "quantam universes". Sound confusing enough? There's also a chapter at the end of the book that says how you can create a time machine, but it would be really difficult, becuase it says you need a black hole. This book is facinating, yet it may be confusing to some people.

CONFUSING, yet interresting

I had to make a report on black holes and time traveling. I read this book knowing nothing about scientific theories, trying to search for knowledge on the topic. It helped me a lot. It showed me how a time machine can be build. HOWEVER, it didn't based this theory on much. I was left dazed and confused. When I asked teachers to help me understand, they said it was just IMPOSSIBLE! Should this book be categorized as fiction? I hope not. My grade depends on it!
