Quantum Field Theory: A Modern Introduction
Michio Kaku
Oxford University Press, USA, 1993
This is an Introduction - Not an In-Depth Study...DUH
Some of these reviewers need to review the title of the book. This is a "modern introduction to quantum field theory", not some in-depth study with hearty breadth. Duh. For physicist's you people don't have much common sense to speak of.

Introduction to Superstrings (Graduate Texts in Contemporary Physics)
Michio Kaku
Springer, 1990
Gentle.
Just a few words for the (alleged) reader from Princeton (although I am strongly urged to believe that she was a very lowly and bitter physics undergraduate student buried somewhere beneath the vast cornfields in Illinois, at the time her review was posted): ...

Beyond Einstein: The Cosmic Quest for the Theory of the Universe
Michio Kaku
Anchor, 1995
Very interesting and within reach of ordinary folks like me...
I really liked this book. It found it easier to understand (and less gee-whiz) than Brian Greene's The Elegant Universe (paperback and CD). Kaku and his co-writer presented a very clear description of what hyperspace would look like to four-dimensional creatures such ...

Introduction to Superstrings and M-Theory (Graduate Texts in Contemporary Physics)
Michio Kaku
Springer, 1999
Superb Capture of superstrings
I enjoyed this book because it simply portrays how the univeral workings of the universe function. It makes you think just how many forms string can take and in this case, it's one large piece of string. Perhaps, we can use these pieces of string as a source of fuel ...

Visions How Science Will Revolutionize The 21st Century
Michio Kaku
Doubleday, 1997
physics for the layman
My introduction to Mickio Kaku came when he was a guest speaker at a conference I attended. My first thought was "a physicist? Yawn!" But what a speaker he is! I left feeling that I had a rudimentary understanding of string theory. In fact, not just understanding ...
