Summary
"Verification of philosophical claims by experiment." That is the business of the Time Travelling Experimental Philosophy Unit. However, scatty-minded member Sue accidentally copies and pastes a "JIM" from 2014 Edinburgh to 1914, along with 36 clones. Lacking the resources to get Jim home, Sue tries to impress her superiors by engaging Tam, a local working man, to help with her research. Unfortunately her antics in an Edinburgh pub result in a police raid from which Sue, Tam, and Jim escape aided by two political desperados with a gun. Jim’s existentialist fears are compounded when the life of his grandfather-to-be is threatened and World War I fails to start on cue. Sue and Jim end up in Victorian Malvern, home of the famous water cure, where they help a renegade philosophical zombie save Florence Nightingale's life.
