In Physics of the Future, theoretical physicist Michio Kaku brings the knowledge he's gleaned from interviewing over 300 scientific experts in a diverse range of disciplines to explore the ways that new scientific discoveries will affect the next century of human civilization. The book is broken up in a very clear manner, exploring the near future, midcentury, and far future discoveries that will shape our world in the century to come.
Of course, Kaku himself makes it clear that these are only predictions, and he goes to great lengths to explain that those who have tried to make such predictions in the past are wrong more often than not.
Still, this is a great book from a master at presenting science to the general public, so should be of interest to any readers who want an idea about what to expect from science in the next century.
