Title: NOT for theoretical physicists
Review: I praise Kaku's lucid literary writing style, but condemn everything else about this popular physics book. Kaku mystifies physics and makes it look like some sort of cult which deals with surreal objects such as "hyper-dimensions" and "warped space" - whatever those things mean to the average person who hasn't completed his PhD in supersymmetry. Reading Kaku's book is similar to reading a science fiction novel or watching an episode of star trek - things that have nothing to do in practice with physics. What ever happened to wondering about why the sky is blue, or how a radio works? Geez ... if you're into mysticism, try this book. If you're into physics, try another.
Is the review positive or negative?
