Dr. Michio Kaku is a theoretical physicist at the City College of New York, a best-selling author, and a well-known popularizer of science. He’s the co-founder of string field theory (a branch of string theory) and continues Einstein’s search to unite the four fundamental forces of nature into one unified theory.
He has appeared frequently on television, written for popular science publications such as Discover, Wired, and New Scientist, been featured in documentaries such as Me & Isaac Newton, and hosted many of his own documentaries.
His books include The Future of the Mind (2014), Physics of the Future: How Science Will Shape Human Destiny and Our Daily Lives by the Year 2100 (2012), Physics of the Impossible: A Scientific Exploration of the World of Phasers, Force Fields, Teleportation, and Time Travel (2008), Parallel Worlds (2006), Einstein’s Cosmos (2005), Visions (1999), Beyond Einstein (1995), and Hyperspace (1994), in addition to several Ph.D.-level textbooks.

The first book-length exploration of the most exciting development in modern physics, the theory of 10-dimensional space. The theory of hyperspace, which Michio Kaku pioneered, may be the leading candidate for the Theory of Everything that Einstein spent the remaining years of his life searching for.
