Product Information
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The epic story of the greatest quest in all of science--the holy grail of physics that would explain the creation of the universe--from renowned theoretical physicist and author of The Future of the Mind and The Future of Humanity. When Newton discovered the law of gravity, he unified the rules governing the heavens and the Earth. Since then, physicists have been placing new forces into ever-grander theories. But perhaps the ultimate challenge is achieving a monumental synthesis of the two remaining theories--relativity and the quantum theory. This would be the crowning achievement of science, a profound merging of all the forces of nature into one beautiful, magnificent equation to unlock the deepest mysteries in science: What happened before the Big Bang? What lies on the other side of a black hole? Are there other universes and dimensions? Is time travel possible? Why are we here? Kaku also explains the intense controversy swirling around this theory, with Nobel laureates taking opposite sides on this vital question. It is a captivating, gripping story; what's at stake is nothing less than our conception of the universe. Written with Kaku's trademark enthusiasm and clarity, this epic and engaging journey is the story of The God Equation .

Reviews
Praise for Michio Kaku's The God Equation : "This is an excellent book written by a masterful science communicator. . . . If there is anyone who can demystify the esoteric mathematics and physics of string theory, it is [Kaku]. And in this wonderful little book, that is precisely what he does--explain in clear and simple terms the conceptual breakthroughs, the blind alleys and the unanswered questions--in the search for a grand unified theory of everything. . . . The God Equation dazzles. . . . Kaku, a consummate storyteller, provides an engaging, unvarnished account. . . . His book presents cutting-edge ideas in theoretical physics, and primes readers to be ready when the next major breakthrough occurs." -- The Wall Street Journal "Authoritative and accessible." -- Nature "Kaku eloquently reviews the structure of our universe, highlighting contributions from intellectual giants and those continuing the daunting, decades-long quest for the elusive theory of everything. . . . Examining this tantalizing theory, Kaku outlines its promises, problems, and the breathtaking, almost inconceivable array of possibilities it presents. Kaku's latest captures the awesome and mysterious beauty of the universe, of our planet, and of ourselves, and will intrigue anyone who ponders existence." -- Booklist "Riveting. . . . Kaku's expertise at making mind-bending concepts comprehensible makes this a real intellectual eye-opener." -- Publisher's Weekly "An expert account of the search for 'the holy grail of physics.' . . . Illuminating. . . . An important work." -- Kirkus Reviews, A SMITHSONIAN BEST SCIENCE BOOK OF THE YEAR "This is an excellent book written by a masterful science communicator. . . .

The book came with a big fold on its cover, but the rest is ok. The time for it to come was very small and the seller did a good job.

The book traveled halfway around the world to reach me, and considering that, it is in stellar condition, except for two pages that were slightly damaged during transport.
My only concern was the local shipping price, which was double the regular rate. However, this might be a local issue, so I can't fault the international shipping agency.
