Physics of the Future is a book on the possible developments we will have in the future by theoretical physicist Michio Kaku. Summary of the Book What will the world be like in the near future? What will computers look like? How will we interact with them? Michio Kaku speaks about the future of technology in this century, predicting what direction it will take. He predicts a future where the technology could be considered groundbreaking today, as in the case of the comparative lack of technology in the days of the World Wars. He explains how wearable technology is already changing the world. He also speaks about robots and how body parts are being replaced by robotics, helping amputees recover.
