br. Esistono gli universi paralleli? Possiamo raggiungere queste nuove dimensioni? La scienza ufficiale per molto tempo non si è occupata di queste ipotesi; oggi invece, nuove teorie come quella dell'Iperspazio sono il fulcro dell'attività scientifica e sostengono che dimensioni inesplorate potrebbero essere incredibilmente vicine. Capaci di circondare completamente la nostra realtà e di attraversare lo spazio in cui ci muoviamo, esse sarebbero tuttavia al di fuori della portata dei nostri sensi. Se davvero esistessero altre dimensioni parallele a quella che abitiamo, non sarebbe affatto improbabile neppure l'esistenza di punti di contatto tra una dimensione e l'altra. Con questo libro, Michio Kaku si rivolge a quei lettori che vogliono comprendere meglio l'universo, portandoli a conoscenza delle moderne ricerche scientifiche al riguardo. In questo modo viene finalmente resa disponibile anche al grande pubblico la teoria dell'Iperspazio, presentata dall'autore con rigore scientifico ma con un linguaggio semplice. Questa teoria potrebbe rappresentare ciò che Einstein inseguì invano: una legge capace di spiegare e includere tutte le leggi della natura, dalla più piccola particella atomica alla più vasta galassia.

He Then Won A Chinese National Fellowship To Study In The United States In 1933. He Completed His Master Of Science Degree At The Massachusetts Institute Of Technology In 1936. He Returned To Teach At Tsing Hua University In 1937. Lin Was Asked To Design Aircraft During World War Ii. His Production Team Worked In A Cave To Protect Against Bombing By The Japanese. He Lacked Modern Design Tools Such As Wind Tunnels To Test The Aircraft. The C-0101 Which He Designed And Constructed Largely From Bamboo And Wood Was Test Flown From Chungking To Chengdu On November 18 1944. Lin Was Awarded A Medal By The Chinese Government For His Efforts. After The War Lin Was A Member Of A Mission To Design Jet Aircraft In China. They Approached The St. Louis Missouri-Based Mcdonnell Aircraft About Mass-Producing Their Aircraft But As The Price Quoted Was Too Expensive They Instead Chose Gloucester England's Gloster Aircraft Company; Lin Was Part Of A 20-Person Design Team Who Moved To England To Work With Them In 1947. However Due To A Lack Of Funding They Had To Halt Production In 1949 Whereupon Lin Moved To The United States. There He Taught At The University Of Detroit While Studying For His Doctorate At The University Of Michigan. He Became A Professor At The University Of California Los Angeles In 1955; While There He Published The Theory Of Inelastic Structure In 1968. Lin Was Awarded The Theodore Von Kármán Medal By The American Society Of Civil Engineers In 1988. His Research On Earthquake Stress In Construction Materials Led To A Fellowship In The National Academy Of Engineering In 1990. Taiwan's Academia Sinica Named Him As A Member In 1996.
