Interesting book
It's definitely worth the read. Plus, the price is cheap, so you really can't go wrong! I bought it on a whim and am not disappointed.

Watch Out For Causality Loops!
I bought this book next week and I'm already almost done with it. If all goes according to plan I should be able to go back and prevent World War III. Wish me luck!

Where is the Time Travel Information????
If you enjoy reading accounts of strange events then this is probably a good book. Out of app 185 pages only 20 had any "real" information and that was mainly how to do astal or out of body travel. Big Deal many books have much better information about that. Where is the time travel how to? I don't care that "Joe" stepped under a ladder and was never seen again. This book is supposed to be a how to not reports from mag's, newspapers, etc about strange disappearances. Very, Very disappointed and you will see my copy on Ebay.

No Time Like The Present
Nearly everyone has dreamed at some point in their lives about traveling in time. Whether to go back to the past and rectify some mistake or to journey to the future and see the outcome of some struggle in the present, there is a universal desire, albeit often an unconscious one, to step out of the prison of the present and control our own destiny in time.Bearing that widely shared idea in mind, authors Commander X and Tim Swartz have created a wonderful study of the nature of time--and the myriad ways it is bent out of its normal shape--that is not only fascinating to read but which may also open new possibilities about traveling in time that the reader never befoe dreamed possible.The opening chapter gives the reader a primer on time as it has been dreamt of by philosophers and scientists down through the ages. Everyone from Isaac Newton to Albert Einstein to Stephen Hawking has grappled with defining the nature of time, and Commander X and Tim Swartz quickly bring the reader up to speed on both the historical and the current state-of-the-art thinking about time as we know it.There are also a great many stories of people who have had unusual experiences involving time, including being thrust into the past so completely that they experience being literally and physically "there." That phenomenon, called "retro-cognition," is illustrated beautifully by the tale of two English school teachers who in 1901 visited the Palace of Versailles as tourists.The two women, after finding themselves oddly alone at the popular tourist attraction, are surprised to suddenly see people in period costumes from the era of Marie Antoinette, and even the long dead queen herself appears before them, sketching a landscape to idle away the hours and seemingly oblivious to the mob from Paris that would soon arrive. Both women described the feeling of being oppressed by waves of sadness throughout the experience, and they later theorized that "the visions that had enveloped them were scenes from a vivid, melancholy daydream that had once filled the queen's mind."The story of the slip in time experienced by the two teachers is told with a wealth of interesting narrative details by the authors, and the numerous anecdotes of still more unnerving experiences of coming unstuck in time that form the bulk of the book are spellbinding in their bizarre yet utterly believable events.And true to their word, Commander X and Tim Swartz do ultimately manage to offer a kind of "How-To Insiders Guide" on time travel. Their advice consists mostly of various ways to induce an out-of-body-experience, or OBE, as a means of traveling to the past or the future, as well as help in locating those doorways in time and space that occasionally open up and provide free passage to another dimension."Self-awareness and the power of the mind," write the authors, "are all that is needed to break down the barriers of Time and Space. Spiritual masters have been telling us for centuries that time is simply an illusion created by the brain's need for patterns and order. Existence is a continuous state of Now."It's just that kind of marriage between physics and mysticism that may finally allow us to cross over the thresholds in time the way the authors envision. Meanwhile, there's no time like the present to order "Time Travel: A How-To Insiders Guide."

It mostly tells story's instead how to actually time travel with the physical body. The stories don't help the reader get any closer to time traveling all it was intended to do was to fill up pages to justify the price of the item.

Time Travel book has good info
Despite what earlier reviews have said - I found this book to be really informative and entertaining as well! I never realized how many people over the years have experienced time slips and related incidents. This book covers so much that I have had to read it several times. It also talks about how certain areas could have natural "doorways" to take you into the past or future. And ways that you can mentally travel through time, along with instructions on astral projections. This book covers a whole lot more than other books on the subject of time travel and it is worth sitting down and reading from cover to cover.

Good book, an enjoyable read, however, there are a LOT of spelling mistakes which makes it hard to read in places.

Time as it really is
Our illusion of time being in the linear is very out of date and Swartz does an excellent job of shedding a light on the fact that past, present and future co exists. Time as we know it is man made and time slips are an increasingly common occurrence. Swartz goes into some detail about different time slip accounts in a logical and down to earth manner. He also delves into the less plausible stories on time travel such as the Philadelphia Experiment which in one sense would have been better left out of this book as it slightly detracts from the credibility of the rest of the book but in another sense the fact that he mentions it shows how logical he actually is in approaching such events which in a way provides the time slip stories with more credibility. The last quarter of the book is dedicated to the methods in which one might purposely time travel both physically and mentally. There is no nonsense here as it is in fact possible to walk from time to time in this multidimensional universe. Whether you believe it is up to you.
