 From Publishers Weekly
In this latest effort to popularize the sciences, City University of  
New York professor and media star Kaku (Hyperspace) ponders topics  
that many people regard as impossible, ranging from psychokinesis and  
telepathy to time travel and teleportation. His Class I  
impossibilities include force fields, telepathy and antiuniverses,  
which don't violate the known laws of science and may become  
realities in the next century. Those in Class II await realization  
farther in the future and include faster-than-light travel and  
discovery of parallel universes. Kaku discusses only perpetual motion  
machines and precognition in Class III, things that aren't possible  
according to our current understanding of science. He explains how  
what many consider to be flights of fancy are being made tangible by  
recent scientific discoveries ranging from rudimentary advances in  
teleportation to the creation of small quantities of antimatter and  
transmissions faster than the speed of light. Science and science  
fiction buffs can easily follow Kaku's explanations as he shows that  
in the wonderful worlds of science, impossible things are happening  
every day. (Mar. 11) "
