Visions: How Science Will Revolutionize the 21st Century

In Visions, Dr. Kaku examines in vivid detail how the three scientific revolutions that profoundly reshaped the twentieth century–the quantum, biogenetic, and computer revolutions–will transform the way we live in the twenty-first century.  The fundamental elements of matter and life–the particles of the atom and the nucleus of the cell–have now been decoded, closing one of the great chapters of scientific history.  But this is just the preface to an even more far-reaching scientific revolution, as we make the transition from being passive observers of the mysteries of nature to becoming masters of nature, able to manipulate matter, life, and intelligence to remold the world around us.
