Overview

¿Hasta qué punto los ingenios de la ciencia ficción que hoy consideramos imposibles pueden ser habituales en el futuro?

Teletransporte, máquinas del tiempo, campos de fuerza y naves intergalácticas:¿materia de ciencia ficción o tecnologías potencialmente disponibles en el futuro? Inspirado por los mundos fantásticos de H.G. Wells, Star Trek o La guerra de las galaxias, el prestigioso físico teórico y divulgador Michio Kaku lanza una mirada inteligente, seria y a menudo sorprendente a lo que nuestra actual comprensión de las leyes del universo nos permite vislumbrar en el futuro.

Un fascinante viaje por mundos hasta ahora solo soñados por la ciencia ficción, que ofrece nuevos retos a las próximas generaciones de científicos capaces de desafiar las imposibilidades de nuestro tiempo.

Reseñas:

Física de lo imposible trata de explicar por qué algunas visiones del futuro podrían llegar a realizarse mientras que otras probablemente permanecerán más allá de los límites de lo posible [...] La ciencia ficción explora a menudo estas cuestiones; la ciencia en cambio permanece callada en este punto. El trabajo de Kaku ayuda a llenar un vacío.
The Economist

Aquello que muchos consideran un vuelo de la imaginación se está materializando gracias a recientes descubrimientos científicos, que van desde tímidos progresos en teletransporte hasta la creación de pequeñas cantidades de antimateria y transmisiones más rápidas que la velocidad de la luz. Kaku demuestra que en los maravillosos mundos de la ciencia las cosas imposibles suceden a diario.
Publishers Weekly

Pocos físicos teóricos se plantearían explorar algunas de estas posibles imposibilidades, y hay que felicitar a Kaku por hacerlo. Es un excelente estímulo intelectual.
Los Angeles Times

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

NOW A #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

"Compelling....Kaku thinks with great breadth, and the vistas he presents us are worth the trip"
The New York Times Book Review

The New York Times best-selling author of PHYSICS OF THE IMPOSSIBLE, PHYSICS OF THE FUTURE and HYPERSPACE tackles the most fascinating and complex object in the known universe: the human brain.

For the first time in history, the secrets of the living brain are being revealed by a battery of high tech brain scans devised by physicists. Now what was once solely the province of science fiction has become a startling reality. Recording memories, telepathy, videotaping our dreams, mind control, avatars, and telekinesis are not only possible; they already exist.

THE FUTURE OF THE MIND gives us an authoritative and compelling look at the astonishing research being done in top laboratories around the world—all based on the latest advancements in neuroscience and physics. One day we might have a "smart pill" that can enhance our cognition; be able to upload our brain to a computer, neuron for neuron; send thoughts and emotions around the world on a "brain-net"; control computers and robots with our mind; push the very limits of immortality; and perhaps even send our consciousness across the universe.

Dr. Kaku takes us on a grand tour of what the future might hold, giving us not only a solid sense of how the brain functions but also how these technologies will change our daily lives. He even presents a radically new way to think about "consciousness" and applies it to provide fresh insight into mental illness, artificial intelligence and alien consciousness.

With Dr. Kaku's deep understanding of modern science and keen eye for future developments, THE FUTURE OF THE MIND is a scientific tour de force--an extraordinary, mind-boggling exploration of the frontiers of neuroscience.
