  •   In this thrilling journey into the mysteries of our cosmos,bestselling author Michio Kaku takes us on a dizzying ride toexplore black holes and time machines, multidimensional space and,most tantalizing of all, the possibility that parallel universesmay lay alongside our own.

      Kaku skillfully guides us through the latest innovations instring theory and its latest iteration, M-theory, which posits thatour universe may be just one in an endless multiverse, a singularbubble floating in a sea of infinite bubble universes. If M-theoryis proven correct, we may perhaps finally find answer to thequestion, “What happened before the big bang?” This is an excitingand unforgettable introduction into the new cutting-edge theoriesof physics and cosmology from one of the pre-eminent voices in thefield.  MICHIO KAKU is the Henry Semat Professor of Theoretical Physicsat the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. He isthe author of several widely acclaimed books, including Visions,Beyond Einstein, and Hyperspace, which was named one of the bestscience books of the year by the New York Times and the WashingtonPost. He hosts a nationally syndicated radio science program andhas appeared on such national television shows as Nightline, 60Minutes, Good Morning America, and Larry King Live.
