In Tomorrow - A Practical Guide to Time Travel, Gary Paul Bryant invites readers to step out of the “someday, maybe” mindset and into a serious exploration of how time travel could move from thought experiment to achievable technology. Built on the premise that there’s a strong probability we live in a block universe — a model where past, present, and future all exist at once — the book treats time travel not as a narrative gimmick, but as a natural extension of physics.
The writing walks a fine line: rigorous enough to engage readers with an appetite for science, yet accessible enough for those whose last brush with equations was in high school. Historical context — from Einstein’s relativity to quantum mechanics — is woven in with contemporary thought, making it clear how we arrived at this moment where time travel feels less like a fantasy and more like a frontier.
Where the book shines is in its pragmatic tone. Instead of falling into sci-fi excess, Bryant asks practical questions: What kind of machine would work? How would we navigate? What energy sources could power the trip? And, importantly, should we? The ethical considerations are given as much weight as the engineering, grounding the whole work in responsibility.
The result is an unusual hybrid: part science explainer, part technological forecast, part philosophical reflection. Tomorrow doesn’t just argue that time travel is possible — it makes the reader wonder why, if the odds are this good, we aren’t already working on it.
