The best part about Haldeman's sci-fi is the background info he gives you on everything is solid. He has his BSc in Astronomy (and physics) and it shows in every way. The science in An Accidental Time Machine (a derivation of applied string theory), and in Forever Peace (what could happen if we used gravitational pulls in space to wing particles similar to a large hadron collider) is explained enough to understand for the science inept, and greatly appreciated by those all the more inclined to it.
