MICHIO KAKU tackles the most fascinating and complex object in the known universe: the human brain.

THE FUTURE OF THE MIND brings a topic that once belonged solely to the province of science fiction into a startling new reality.

This scientific tour de force unveils the astonishing research being done in top laboratories around the world — all based on the latest advancements in neuroscience and physics — including recent experiments in telepathy, mind control, avatars, telekinesis, and recording memories and dreams.

THE FUTURE OF THE MIND is an extraordinary, mind-boggling exploration of the frontiers of neuroscience.

Dr. Kaku looks toward the day when we may achieve the ability to upload the human brain to a computer, neuron for neuron; project thoughts and emotions around the world on a brain-net; take a “smart pill” to enhance cognition; send our consciousness across the universe; and push the very limits of immortality.
