Parallel Worlds (book)

Parallel Worlds (book)

"Parallel Worlds; A Journey Through Creation, Higher Dimensions, and the Future of the Cosmos" was copyrighted by Michio Kaku in 2005.

From the back of the book:"In this thrilling journey into the mysteries of our cosmos, bestselling author Michio Kaku takes us on a dizzying ride to explore black holes and time machines, mulitidimensional space and, most tantalizing of all, the possibility that parallel universes may lie alongside our own.

"Kaku skillfully guides us through the latest innovations in string theory and its most recent iteration, M-theory, which posits that our universe may be just one in an endless multiverse, a singular bubble floating in a sea of infinite bubble universes If M-theory is proven correct, we may perhaps finally find an answer to the question, "What happened before the big bang?" This is an exciting and unforgettable introduction to the cutting-edge theories of physics and cosmology from one of the preeminent voices in the field."

In "Parallel Worlds," Kaku presents many of the leading theories in physics; from Newtonian physics to Relativity to Quantum Physics to String theory and even into the newest version of string theory, called M-theory, just to name a few. He makes available to the reader a comprehensive description of many of the more compelling theories in physics, including many interesting predictions each theory makes, what physicists, astronomers, and cosmologists are looking for now and what technology they are using in their search.

Michio Kaku has also written five other books: "Beyond Einstein", "Einstein's Cosmos", "Hyperspace", "Visions", and "Physics of the Impossible".
