michio kaku

Michio Kaku (加來紀雄) is a Japanese American theoretical physicist known for his popular accounts of string field theory. Although he claims to be the co-founder of string theory, most historical accounts fail to mention any of his contributions. He graduated from Harvard in 1968. He went on to the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley in 1972, and in 1973 he held a lectureship at Princeton University. Michio Kaku holds the Henry Semat Professorship in Theoretical Physics at the City University of New York, where he has taught for over 25 years. He has also been a visiting professor at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, as well as New York University. He is working on Einstein's Theory of Everything, which seeks to unify the four fundamental forces of the universe into a single equation. He has authored nine books, including the best-sellers Beyond Einstein, Visions, and Hyperspace. Dr. Kaku hosts Exploration, a weekly radio show on WBAI, a Pacifica radio station in New York City on science and ecology. It is rebroadcast on some other stations, and can be streamed at at a KPFA site http://www.kpfa.org/1pro_bio/1b_explo.htm. Kaku is a frequent guest on Art Bell's radio program, Coast to Coast AM.
