Product Description:
In this thrilling journey into the mysteries of our cosmos, bestselling author Michio Kaku takes us on a dizzying ride to explore black holes and time machines, multidimensional space and, most tantalizing of all, the possibility that parallel universes may lay alongside our own.

If M-theory is proven correct, we may perhaps finally find answer to the question, “What happened before the big bang?” This is an exciting and unforgettable introduction into the new cutting-edge theories of physics and cosmology from one of the pre-eminent voices in the field.

The glossary entry for "anthropic principle" begins "The principle that the constants of nature are tuned to allow for life and intelligence." Tuning something is an activity that demands intelligence.
Actually I think the most intelligent thing the designer ever did was inventing evolution.

I don't have much physics backgroud but found this book very easy to comprehend and easy to read also. The information is astonishing.

Ranges further and is more accessible than Brian Greene's "Elegant Universe." A must read for anyone who is interested in the _very big questions_.
