  We consider two approaches to evading paradoxes in quantum mechanics with
closed timelike curves (CTCs). In a model similar to Politzer's, assuming pure
states and using path integrals, we show that the problems of paradoxes and of
unitarity violation are related; preserving unitarity avoids paradoxes by
modifying the time evolution so that improbable events bewcome certain. Deutsch
has argued, using the density matrix, that paradoxes do not occur in the "many
worlds interpretation". We find that in this approach account must be taken of
the resolution time of the device that detects objects emerging from a wormhole
or other time machine. When this is done one finds that this approach is viable
only if macroscopic objects traversing a wormhole interact with it so strongly
that they are broken into microscopic fragments.
