Comprehensive
and compelling, assertive and argumentative, it's a lot like Wells himself,
and that quality of subversive, angry brilliance lights the book from
within. Wagar's examination is brisk, personal, original. In a word,
wonderful. ---Greg Bear, author of Darwin's Children
Wagar
locates Wells with acumen in the history of ideas, and underlines his
persisting and provocative relevance. Traversing Time is an important
book, written from the heart as well as from the head.---Ian
Watson, author of The Embedding
...
an excellent example of intellectual history... ---Neil Barron,
