Quantum theorists silently slaughter cats in tightly closed boxes. For matters of consistency, general relativists prefer family affairs instead. They travel back in time to murder their grandfathers before they themselves were born. John Earman's new book brings good news for the elder generation: Grandfathers do not figure so prominently in a critical account of general relativity (GTR) that any such experiment will ever pass an ethics commission.
