Its sole inhabitant is old and mad. Soon it becomes apparent that for him, time is going slowly backward. With every day, he is getting younger and saner. The world, and its whole concept of time, science and philosophy, must wait for him to speak. But while the world waits, it changes:- Review(s): 'The Very Slow Time Machine' appears here along with a dozen more dazzling stories from one of the foremost pioneers on the boundaries of science fiction. / "Finely written, intelligent and humane - Ian Watson is among the very few writers of any sort of fiction who can genuinely handle the front line of contemporary intellectual work" - The Observer / "Never failing pyrotechnics" - The Oxford Times / "Hard, original, shrewd. They tell you all the time 'you should have seen this coming.' But you never do. That's proper science fiction" - The Guardian:- (original cost £1.25). Seller Inventory # 11.003.00005
