Bursting the Limits of Time is a remarkable contribution toward our historical comprehension of what is arguably the most momentous transformation in natural science of the past three centuries: the infusion into the sciences of nature - which from their beginnings had been essentially about the timeless order of nature - of an historical dimension. A highly significant addition to the literature in the history of science. - Kenneth Taylor, University of Oklahoma
