Michio Kaku, the New York Times bestselling author of Physics of the Impossible and Physics of the Future tackles the most fascinating and complex object in the known universe: the human brain.
The Future of the Mind
brings a topic that once belonged solely to the province of science
fiction into a startling new reality. This scientific tour de force
unveils the astonishing research being done in top laboratories around
the world—all based on the latest advancements in neuroscience and
physics—including recent experiments in telepathy, mind control,
avatars, telekinesis, and recording memories and dreams. The Future of the Mind
is an extraordinary, mind-boggling exploration of the frontiers of
neuroscience. Dr. Kaku looks toward the day when we may achieve the
ability to upload the human brain to a computer, neuron for neuron;
project thoughts and emotions around the world on a brain-net; take a
“smart pill” to enhance cognition; send our consciousness across the
universe; and push the very limits of immortality.
