Everywhere and Everywhen: Adventures in Physics and… door Nick Huggett
A philosophy-of-physics popularization, mainly focusing on the nature of space and time (including relativity and the question of time travel). The subject matter is splendid, but it didn't seem to me that the various descriptions are among the clearest that have been published. Or maybe it's just another case of my not liking "philosophy of X" as much as just "X".
