  Simply amazing. Michio Kaku, like no one else, except perhabs Brian Greene, is able to make clear even so "hostile" thing like quantum mechanics.

  This chef d'oeuvre is not only a clear, exhaustive and charming guide to modern physics, but also a clear positive message toward the reader.
  I let it comment by itself:

  “The generation now alive is perhaps the most important generation of humans ever to walk the Earth. Unlike previous generations, we hold in our hands the future destiny of our species, whether we soar into fulfilling our promise as a type I civilization or fall into the abyss of chaos, pollution, and war. Decisions made by us will reverberate throughout this century. How we resolve global wars, proliferating nuclear weapons, and sectarian and ethnic strife will either lay or destroy the foundations of a type I civilization. Perhaps the purpose and meaning of the current generation are to make sure that the transition to a type I civilization is a smooth one.
  The choice is ours. This is the legacy of the generation now alive. This is our destiny.”
