Here’s a book about the more exciting side of physics.

So I was thinking, I like reading, and I’m also quite interested in the world or theoretical physics. Why not read a book about theoretical physics? So I found this book, Physics of the Impossible, written by Michio Kaku-world renowned physicist (and co-founder of the string field theory).

This is a book that discuses the science behind science fiction. In this book there are three classes of impossibilities: Class I impossibility – consistent with the known laws of physics and can be realized within the next century; Class II impossibility – lies on the very edge of our understanding and may be achievable in a thousand years or more; and Class III impossibility – defies the known laws of physics.

This books discusses the subjects of:

1: Force Fields
2: Invisibility
3: Phasers and Death Stars
4: Teleportation
5: Telepathy
6: Psycho kinesis
7: Robots
8: Extraterrestrials and UFOs 9: Starships                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          10: Antimatter and Anti universes                                                                                                                                                                                                 11: Faster Than Light
12: Time Travel
13:Parallel  universe                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              14: Perpetual Motion Machines
15: Precognition

What I really liked about this book is that it is written so that the average person can understand it, yet it goes deep into theoretical physics and still remains interesting and exciting. I recommend this to anyone who is 15 or above, and have interest in the scientific world. I give this book a 5/5.
