Synopsis

String theory, once hailed as a potential "theory of everything," continues to progress at an astonishing rate, and this book brings the reader up to date with the latest developments and the most active areas of research in the field. New chapters discuss such topics as Seiberg-Witten theory, M theory and duality., and D-branes. The book includes a review of the fundamentals of string theory, making the presentation of the material self-contained while keeping overlap with the earlier book to a minimum. This book conveys the vitality of the current research and places readers at its forefront.

Review

From the reviews:

"...because of its wide range in topics, it becomes extremely handy as a 'reference manual'...Kaku's book covers most of the 'hot topics' from the period 1985 through 1996 in a concise but still quite complete way, it fulfills this task in a superb way." Physicalia

"¿ A comprehensive survey of essentially all recent research undertaken in string theory and related fields¿ the author¿s ability to present such an enormous variety of material is astonishing, resulting in a book that is up-to-date and thorough." Physics Today
