Sinossi

“Time Travel Logic” tackles the age-old question of whether time travel can exist without creating logical paradoxes. It navigates the complex intersection of philosophy, science, and fiction, scrutinizing concepts like the grandfather paradox, where altering the past creates inconsistencies. The book uniquely argues that paradoxes often stem from flawed assumptions about time and causality rather than being inherent impossibilities, suggesting that rigorous logical analysis can reveal consistent interpretations of time travel scenarios. The book explores various theories of time, causality, and identity, then delves into logical systems like modal logic and scientific theories from physics, such as general relativity, to address temporal paradoxes. Applying formal logic to dissect narratives, it pinpoints where contradictions arise in fictional scenarios. For example, causal loops, where an object or information is sent back in time, becoming its own origin, are examined through this lens. This approach offers a toolkit for analyzing and potentially resolving these issues.

 
Structured in four parts, the book progresses from philosophical groundwork to logical systems, scientific contexts, and finally, applications in popular culture. This progression allows for a comprehensive understanding of how logic, philosophy, and physics interplay in theoretical possibilities and fictional representations of temporal displacement. Ultimately, “Time Travel Logic” aims to provide a structured framework for understanding a topic often treated superficially, making it invaluable for students, researchers, and anyone intrigued by the science and philosophy of time travel.

    The Mexican Revolution was a great revolution that included a series of army local battles instead of a single united struggle. It destroyed the Federal Force and changed it with an innovative army, changing Mexican civilization and governance at the same time It also culminated in the adoption of a new constitution that included the revolutionaries' ideal visions. 
    In spite of the fact that President Porfirio Daz's (from about 1880 to 1911) rule had grown progressively out of favor over the prior 31 years, there was no indicator that a transformation would break out in the year 1910. 
    Daz was not able to establish a regulated resolution to governmental succession, which led to a power struggle between opposing elites, and between elites and the middle classes, which sometimes included the "masses." 
    There were agrarian uprisings, most significantly in Morelos under Emiliano Zapata. 
    In this book, we will learn more about those.

    Read by the author, Sarah Harkness.From an impoverished childhood in the Scottish highlands to Victorian London, this is the inspiring story of brothers Daniel and Alexander Macmillan who built a publishing empire - and brought Alice in Wonderland to the world. Their remarkable achievements are revealed in this entertaining, superbly researched biography.Daniel and Alexander arrived in London in the 1830s at a crucial moment of social change. These two idealistic brothers, working-class sons of a Scottish crofter, went on to set up a publishing house that spread radical ideas on equality, science and education across the world. They also brought authors like Lewis Carroll, Thomas Hardy and Charles Kingsley, and poets like Matthew Arnold and Christina Rossetti, to a mass audience. No longer would books be just for the upper classes.In Literature for the People Sarah Harkness brings to life these two warm-hearted men. Daniel was driven by the knowledge that he was living on borrowed time, his body was ravaged by tuberculosis. Alexander took on responsibility for the company as well as Daniel’s family and turned a small business into an international powerhouse. He cultivated the literary greats of the time, weathered controversy and tragedy, and fostered a dynasty that would include future prime minister Harold Macmillan.Including fascinating insights about the great, the good and the sometimes wayward writers of the Victorian era, with feuds, friendships and passionate debate, this vibrant book is bursting with all the energy of that exciting period in history.
