Hyperspace: Are there other dimensions beyond our everyday experience? Are there access portals to parallel universes? What happened before the first day of Creation? These types of questions lie at the heart of current scientific activity.
Indeed, many physicists now believe that there exist additional dimensions beyond the four of our space-time, and that a unified vision of the diverse forces of nature can be achieved if we consider that everything we see around us, from trees to stars, are merely vibrations in hyperspace. The theory of hyperspace – and its more recent derivative, the theory of superstrings – is the eye of this revolution.
In this book, Michio Kaku presents a fascinating panorama that completely changes our vision of the cosmos, and takes us on a dazzling journey through new dimensions: wormholes connecting parallel universes, time machines, "baby universes," and other similar wonders emerge in these pages, all explained with an elegant simplicity where mathematical formulations are replaced by imaginative illustrations that allow the problems to be visualized. The result is a highly enjoyable and surprising book that even surpasses the greatest fantasies of the old science fiction authors.
Many physicists today believe that there are additional dimensions beyond the four of our space-time, and that a unified understanding of the diverse forces of nature can be achieved by considering everything we observe, from trees to stars, as vibrations in hyperspace. The theory of hyperspace, and its more recent offshoot, the theory of superstrings, is central to this revolutionary perspective.

Questions about the existence of other dimensions beyond our everyday experience, potential access to parallel universes, and the events preceding the first day of Creation, lie at the core of current scientific inquiry. Many physicists now believe that there are additional spatial dimensions beyond the four of our space-time, and that a unified understanding of the fundamental forces of nature can be achieved by viewing the entire observable universe as vibrations within a higher-dimensional hyperspace.
The theory of hyperspace, and its more recent offshoot, the theory of superstrings, is the focal point of this revolutionary scientific perspective. In his book, renowned physicist Michio Kaku presents a captivating panorama that radically transforms our vision of the cosmos, guiding readers on a dazzling journey through new dimensions. Wormholes connecting parallel universes, time machines, "baby universes" and other marvels emerge in these pages, all explained with an elegant simplicity where mathematical formulations are replaced by imaginative illustrations that bring the concepts to life.
