Praise for “Parallel Worlds”

“Kaku employs an amiable style that does much to make the story accessible even for those of us who have trouble telling the difference between superstring theory and Silly String aerosol. . . . Fascinating and sometimes downright boggling.”

“Kaku covers a tremendous amount of material . . . in a clear and lively way.”

— Los Angeles Times Book Review
