SPECIAL EVENT: Michio Kaku will Present his New Hardcover ~ The Future of Humanity: Terraforming Mars, Interstellar Travel, Immortality, and Our Destiny Beyond Earth

SPECIAL EVENT OVERVIEW:  Michio Kaku, World Renowned Theoretical Physicist and The New York Times #1 Bestselling Author of The Future of the Mind will give a relevant and timely Multimedia Presentation about his New Hardcover The Future of Humanity: Terraforming Mars, Interstellar Travel, Immortality, and Our Destiny Beyond Earth.  This SPECIAL EVENT is Co-Presented by Rainy Day Books & Linda Hall Library of Science, Engineering & Technology.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:  Dr. Michio Kaku is a Professor of Physics at the City University of New York, Co-Founder of String Field Theory with Dr. Brian Greene, and the Bestselling Author of several widely acclaimed Science Books, including Beyond Einstein, The Future of the Mind, Hyperspace, Physics of the Future, and Physics of the ImpossibleDr. Kaku is the Science Correspondent for CBS This Morning and Host of the Radio Programs: Science Fantastic and Exploration.  Dr. Kaku also does Science Programs on PBS and NOVA scienceNOW!  On April 18, 1955, when Michio Kaku was a child of 8 Years old, he was inspired to become a Theoretical Physicist by the greatest scientist of our time, Albert Einstein, Nobel Prize-Winner in 1921 for Physics who had just died that Day at the age of 76 Years old and left his unfinished manuscript of Unified Field Theory (The Theory of Everything ~ E = mc2).

ABOUT THE NEW BOOK:  The #1 Bestselling Author of The Future of the Mind traverses the frontiers of Astrophysics, Artificial Intelligence, and Technology to offer a stunning vision of man's future in space, from settling Mars to traveling to distant Galaxies.

Formerly the domain of Fiction, moving human civilization to the stars is increasingly becoming a scientific possibility--and a necessity.  Whether in the near future due to climate change and the depletion of finite resources, or in the distant future due to catastrophic cosmological events, we must face the reality that humans will one day need to leave planet Earth to survive as a species.  World-Renowned Physicist and Futurist Michio Kaku explores in rich, intimate detail the process by which humanity may gradually move away from the planet and develop a sustainable civilization in outer space.  He reveals how cutting-edge developments in robotics, nanotechnology, and biotechnology may allow us to terraform and build habitable cities on Mars.  He then takes us beyond the Solar System to nearby Stars, which may soon be reached by nanoships traveling on Laser beams at near the Speed of Light.  Finally, he brings us beyond our Galaxy, and even beyond our Universe, to the possibility of immortality, showing us how humans may someday be able to leave our bodies entirely and Laser port to new havens in space.  With irrepressible enthusiasm and wonder, Dr. Kaku takes readers on a fascinating journey to a future in which humanity may finally fulfill its long-awaited destiny among the Stars.
