Review: Landmark - This is an exploration of the topics at the frontier of human endeavour. It might well serve as a laundry list of future careers and fields of enquiry, for those interested. Future herein refers to near term to practically forever . A one of a kind work Review: Just perfect! - Got a damaged piece at first, replaced it with a pristine copy.. The book is indeed exceptional. I already enjoyed reading the Parallel Worlds by the same author, loving this one too. Easy 5 stars!

Speed Of Light
Wormholes, to another dimension, this is an interesting book which squeezes the essence of time and space. The book end notes on the fate of universe and sheds light on type I,II, III, IV type of civilisations which is classified on the basis of energy consumption. This book encapsulates the idea of transforming vacant lifeless planets into a habitable ones, and discusses the mode of establishing human settlement’s in the distant future. It’s a book which ignites wonder and mysteries of time, space, universe, energy and life.

A very good book on future science and humanity's destiny among the stars
Love this type of books which try to look into our future based on what we are today. Some countries of Earth are on the verge of interplanetary travel and even settling on other worlds. It is becoming a necessity. Climate change, resource depletion and future catastrophes will compel us to abandon Earth, one day we will make our homes among the stars. Physicist Michio Kaku discussed in detail how humanity might gradually develop a sustainable civilization in outer space and build habitable cities on Mars. Kaku also explores alternative paths to ensure the survival of humanity, including the possibility of genetic engineering and transferring human consciousness into non-biological machines and transcend our physical bodies entirely. Click on the 'Helpful' button if you liked this review. Uploading some pics for your benefit. Thanks for reading.

Nice book to read
Book is nice to read has collection of ideas already floating around. Good for non science people. What it lacks is it describes mostly already known things could happen in future for more than last 20 years. It is a book and latest so new ideas imagination gone wild thing that one expects is not there. Many things described may not be implemented as described. Albert Einstein said imagination is more important than knowledge. This book is good for someone looking into future of humanity for the first time. But if you are already think about it and intouch with lastest reasearch going on. You will be disappointed.
