false 33418 8 In this thrilling journey into the mysteries of our cosmos, bestselling author Michio Kaku takes us on a dizzying ride to explore black holes and time machines, multidimensional space and, most tantalizing of all, the possibility that parallel universes may lay alongside our own. <br><br>Kaku skillfully guides us through the latest innovations in string theory and its latest iteration, M-theory, which posits that our universe may be just one in an endless multiverse, a singular bubble floating in a sea of infinite bubble universes. If M-theory is proven correct, we may perhaps finally find answer to the question, &#8220;What happened before the big bang?&#8221; This is an exciting and unforgettable introduction into the new cutting-edge theories of physics and cosmology from one of the pre-eminent voices in the field. 33496 2005 Parallel Worlds: A Journey Through Creation, Higher Dimensions, and the Future of the Cosmos total:358|5:128|4:165|3:55|2:10|1:0| 358 1485 680 46 4 1 false false Wed Dec 17 15:30:26 -0800 2008 Fri Dec 26 03:18:03 -0800 2008
