Description: THE PHYSICS AND METAPHYSICS OF TIME TRAVEL ***** Time travel has long been a popular notion of science fiction. We will try to understand some of the various things "time travel" might be taken to mean, and we will discuss and write about a variety of arguments concerning the possibility of time travel. We also touch on issues of causation, explanation, physical laws, personal identity, and other matters of mutual interest to physicists and philosophers. Open only to Freshmen.
