MICHIO KAKU is a professor of physics at the City University of New York, cofounder of string field theory, and the author of several widely acclaimed science books, including Hyperspace, Beyond Einstein, Physics of the Impossible, and Physics of the Future. He is the science correspondent for CBS's This Morning and host of the radio programs Science Fantastic and Explorations in Science.
The New York Times best-selling author of PHYSICS OF THE IMPOSSIBLE, PHYSICS OF THE FUTURE and HYPERSPACE tackles the most fascinating and complex object in the known universe: the human brain.
For the first time in history, the secrets of the living brain are being revealed by a battery of high tech brain scans devised by physicists. Now what was once solely the province of science fiction has become a startling reality. Recording memories, telepathy, videotaping our dreams, mind control, avatars, and telekinesis are not only possible; they already exist.
THE FUTURE OF THE MIND gives us an authoritative and compelling look at the astonishing research being done in top laboratories around the world—all based on the latest advancements in neuroscience and physics. One day we might have a "smart pill" that can enhance our cognition; be able to upload our brain to a computer, neuron for neuron; send thoughts and emotions around the world on a "brain-net"; control computers and robots with our mind; push the very limits of immortality; and perhaps even send our consciousness across the universe.
Dr. Kaku takes us on a grand tour of what the future might hold, giving us not only a solid sense of how the brain functions but also how these technologies will change our daily lives. He even presents a radically new way to think about "consciousness" and applies it to provide fresh insight into mental illness, artificial intelligence and alien consciousness.
With Dr. Kaku's deep understanding of modern science and keen eye for future developments, THE FUTURE OF THE MIND is a scientific tour de force--an extraordinary, mind-boggling exploration of the frontiers of neuroscience.

我對作者加來道雄的印象是:他總將未來科技的進展,過於誇張化瞭。這可能源於他是理論物理學齣身,所以想像常超越現實太多,也可能因他是Discovery 節目主持人之一,習慣將主題渲染以譁眾取寵,所以我在讀他的書時,總要保持某種程度的質疑。但即使如此,仍難否認他擁有良好的...
評分We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. --Wilde 王爾德說:我們都在陰溝裏,但仍有人仰望星空。每當身陷一地雞毛的生活瑣碎裏,我總會嘗試望望星空,換取片刻的抽離。浩瀚無垠的宇宙裏,銀河係隻是一粒微渺的塵埃,地球也不過是小行星偶然撞擊形...
評分Theme: The title of the book suggests the theme of the book. It starts by talking about tools that enable scientific studies of the brain, its physiology and biology. Then, it talks about engineering methods that augment or amend brain's capability. Lastly,...
評分買這本書是跟最近在做的一個腦科學的項目有關。本來希望看一本很科普的腦科學的書,比教材更淺顯易懂即可。沒想到這本書核心內容除瞭講大腦的基本結構功能以及相關故事、揭開大腦神秘麵紗的工具和方法外,還講瞭目前對腦科學的研究認識程度,並且還對未來繪製瞭藍圖。 大腦基本...
評分加來道雄寫完《平行宇宙》後意猶未盡,又意欲揭示宇宙中最復雜物體—-大腦—-的奧秘。理論物理學傢寫神經科學方麵的專著,力度和深度並不足夠,內容多為泛泛而談,點到即止。不過,跨界寫作的優勢在於可以藐視專業禁忌提齣異想天開的推測。如加來道雄就預測,未來的心靈和意識...

brains contains reptile part, mammals part and humans part, that's really interesting, how can you optimize the structure based on an existing structure? do you get the global minimum or evolution will take care of this? differnet imaging techniques which are used to study brains have advantages and limitation, cost, temporal and spatial resolution

評分真想和自己的右腦交談一次,聽聽它的想法
評分作者腦洞開的有點大,但我相信人的大腦和宇宙在本質上確是一樣的。
評分Combination of science and sci-fi, not too optimistic and not too pessimistic, which is what I like best.
