Visions, How Science Will Revolutionize the 21st Century and Beyond

by Michio Kaku

Description

Drawing on interviews with hundreds of leading scientists, this wide-ranging exploration presents a compelling vision of how emerging discoveries may transform life in the twenty-first century and beyond. Organized across the near future, midcentury, and the far future, it examines breakthroughs in computing, artificial intelligence, medicine, nanotechnology, energy, space travel, and the global economy. Alongside its bold predictions, the book considers the social, ethical, and human consequences of technological progress, asking how science may reshape what it means to be human. Clear, accessible, and grounded in cutting-edge research, it brings the excitement of the laboratory—and the possibilities of tomorrow—within reach of general readers.
