Kaku, Michio

Michio is a theoretical physicist and futurist at the City University of New York, where he holds the Henry Semat Chair in Theoretical Physics. He is a leading authority on Einstein’s unified theory and his goal is the complete Einstein’s dream of a “theory of everything,” to derive an equation, perhaps no more than one inch long, which will summarize all the physical laws of the universe. A frequent pubic speaker and broadcaster, he is the author of Hyperspace: A Scientific Odyssey Through Parallel Universes, Time Warps and the Tenth Dimension and Visions: How Science Will Revolutionize the 21st Century. For Visions, he interviewed 150 of the world’s top scientists, many of them Nobel Laureates and directors of the largest scientific laboratories, about their vision for the next 20 years in computers, robotics, biotechnology, space travel, etc. His recent books are Parallel Worlds: A Journey Through Creation, Higher Dimensions and the Future of the Cosmos, and Physics of the Impossible: A Scientific Exploration into the World of Phasers, Force Fields, Teleportation and Time Travel.
