The source material consists of excerpts from a discussion about major scientific and mathematical paradoxes, particularly focusing on the conflict between quantum mechanics and general relativity, known as "The Problem of Time." It details numerous paradoxes across physics (like the Black Hole Information Paradox and the Vacuum Catastrophe), biology (like Peto's Paradox), and mathematics (like Russell's Paradox). The majority of the text then transitions into a creative brainstorming session, offering suggestions for a science fiction novella centered on this fundamental "Problem of Time," proposing various plots, conflicts, and characters that embody the contrasting concepts of fixed, quantum time and dynamic, gravity-affected relativistic time. The suggestions provide scenarios involving catastrophic chrono-rifts and the dangerous consequences of causal loops and observer-created pasts to drive a narrative about unifying these two opposing theories of the universe.
