A fascinating exploration of the science of the impossible—from death rays and force fields to invisibility cloaks—revealing to what extent such technologies might be achievable decades or millennia into the future.
One hundred years ago, scientists would have said that lasers, televisions, and the atomic bomb were beyond the realm of physical possibility. In Physics of the Impossible , the renowned physicist Michio Kaku explores to what extent the technologies and devices of science fiction that are deemed equally impossible today might well become commonplace in the future.
From teleportation to telekinesis, Kaku uses the world of science fiction to explore the fundamentals—and the limits—of the laws of physics as we know them today. He ranks the impossible technologies by categories—Class I, II, and III, depending on when they might be achieved, within the next century, millennia, or perhaps never. In a compelling and thought-provoking narrative, he explains:
· How the science of optics and electromagnetism may one day enable us to bend light around an object, like a stream flowing around a boulder, making the object invisible to observers “downstream”
· How ramjet rockets, laser sails, antimatter engines, and nanorockets may one day take us to the nearby stars
· How telepathy and psychokinesis, once considered pseudoscience, may one day be possible using advances in MRI, computers, superconductivity, and nanotechnology
· Why a time machine is apparently consistent with the known laws of quantum physics, although it would take an unbelievably advanced civilization to actually build one
Kaku uses his discussion of each technology as a jumping-off point to explain the science behind it. An extraordinary scientific adventure, Physics of the Impossible takes readers on an unforgettable, mesmerizing journey into the world of science that both enlightens and entertains.

评分非常非常喜欢。。。 个人觉得,美国的高校就是不一样。这位日裔的美国科学家也非常让我叹为观止,仿佛是一名有趣的魔术师。让我神驰暇往于他的物理世界。 初次见到这个系列是在quantum mechanics的课程上,大爱这个系列的啦。 希望学习物理或者对物理世界感兴趣的都要看看。 这...

评分无机客 死光、力场、隐形斗篷、心灵感应,这是一些听上去就十分的玄乎其神的概念,和科学似乎根本沾不上边。但美籍日裔科学家加来道雄看来将推翻上述的推断,作为弦场理论的共同创建人之一,他探讨了科幻小说里的种种不可思议的技术和设备,并以深厚的科学功底详细地阐述了这...
