Very clearly enunciated narration, if a little flat.

What the book really lacks is a good edit, if recompiled it could be substantially more concise and compelling. The writing style is rather repetitive with a similar approach to quoting third-parties used over and over. Interesting but as a beginner quite hard work. Kaku takes listeners on a fascinating journey to a future in which humanity could finally fulfil its long-awaited destiny among the stars - and perhaps even achieve immortality.įascinating but could probably be half the length & just as informativeĪ genuinely fascinating book although the second half came across to me as predominantly an exploration of elements of the various different theories of physics. With irrepressible enthusiasm and wonder, Dr. With his trademark storytelling verve, Kaku shows us how science fiction is becoming reality: mind-boggling developments in robotics, nanotechnology and biotechnology could enable us to build habitable cities on Mars nearby stars might be reached by microscopic spaceships sailing through space on laser beams and technology might one day allow us to transcend our physical bodies entirely. World-renowned physicist and futurist Michio Kaku explores in rich, accessible detail how humanity might gradually develop a sustainable civilisation in outer space. More than a possibility, it is becoming a necessity: whether our hand is forced by climate change and resource depletion or whether future catastrophes compel us to abandon Earth, one day we will make our homes among the stars.

Human civilisation is on the verge of spreading beyond Earth. Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Future of Humanity by Michio Kaku, read by Feodor Chin.
