Kaku's book takes you through all the ideas that have been put forward about multi-dimensional space in a fascinating way. Adding extra dimensions to our universe, instead of the usual three of space and one of time, has amazing consequences. It can unify all the forces in a beautifully simple way, enable time and space travel and maybe even explain paranormal phenomena! The chapters are split down into subheadings and this makes the physics a lot easier to digest.

'Hyperspace' is so enthralling it is extremely hard to put down. It has just the right balance between science and entertainment that makes it perfect for all to read. The ideas within this book really stretch your imagination to the limit and you will find yourself talking about the ideas to others. I would recommend this book, and Kaku's others, to anyone.

Hyperspace is the best book I have read in that genre. It is very well written and even people without any previous knowledge about the subject will be able to appreciate it. Michio Kaku clearly explains why in his opinion superstring is the way to go. The book starts off with explanation of Einstein's Relativity and then goes to Quantum mechanics. In my opinion this book is a MUST!
