Michio Kaku Has Some Powerful Predictions for the Future

Jolene Creighton | Futurism

No one knows more about the world of tomorrow than Michio Kaku. Equal parts theoretical physicist, futurist, and popular science communicator, Kaku studies cutting-edge science and technology in order to understand the future. A graduate of Harvard University and Berkeley, Kaku has spent 25 years as a professor of theoretical physics at the City College of New York.

His main challenge has been to unite the laws of our universe in a grand “theory of everything” — the same thing to which Albert Einstein dedicated much of his career. Yes, this seems just a little daunting. But Kaku’s foundational contributions to string field theory brought physicists the closest they’ve ever come to actually achieving it.

In short: he’s got real science behind him. Which gives him a unique perspective and background to predict what the future will be like.
