Btw, this book contains excellent footnotes and glossary.  From the glossary:

Planck's length: ..., it is the dimension at which space becomes a quantum foam 
and know physics break down.  It is also the length of superstrings.  

Planck's time: ..., it is the shortest time interval that can exist.  Know 
physics break down for time intervals smaller than Planck's time.  

 (Mathieu Ricard & Trinh Xuan Thuan, 'The Quantum and the Lotus: A Journey to 
the Frontiers Where Science and Buddhism Meet',p.300)

Must get rid of those irrational and paradoxical answers...
