Co-authored by one of the leading pioneers in superstrings, Michio Kaku, this book approaches scientific questions with the excitement of a detective story, looking at new scientific research that may make the impossible possible.

Über den Autor
Michio Kaku is Professor of Theoretical physics at the City College of the City University of New York. He graduated from Harvard and received his PhD from Berkeley. OUP publishes two of his books already - Hyperspace (1994) and Quantum Field Theory: An Introduction (1993) - and he will publish his new book, Visions, with OUP in early 1998.

The New York Times Book Review described it as `Among the best of its genre to appear in recent years';the Independent said 'beautifully written, making difficult ideas seem accessible'. Both the Washington Post and the New York Times selected the book as one of the best science books of the year.
