Actually, it was called
Time Travel in Einstein's Universe by Richard Gott. I do not recall if the author supported the idea; I only remember him refering to it as something Einstein proposed as a possible explanation to gravity, and which was loosely supported by the evidence that the Universe is expanding.
You see, I always thought the Universe was expanding because everything inside of it was expanding, right down to the atom. And that when each of gazillions of atoms expand a little, it makes a big expansion. Guess I was wrong?
