Michio Kaku (加來 道雄, Kaku Michio?) (born January 24, 1947) is an American theoretical physicist specializing in string field theory, and a futurist. He is a popularizer of science, host of two radio programs and a best-selling author. Kaku was born in San Jose, California to Japanese immigrant parents. Reflecting on his childhood, he said: [1] his grandfather had come to the United States to take part in the clean-up operation after the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake. His father was born in California, but received education in Japan, so spoke little English. Both his parents were put in the Tule Lake War Relocation Center where they met, his brother having been born there.

Kaku attended and played first board on the chess team of Cubberly High School in Palo Alto in the early 1960s. At the National Science Fair in Albuquerque, N.M., he attracted the attention of physicist Edward Teller, who took Kaku as a protégé, awarding him the Hertz Engineering Scholarship. Kaku graduated summa cum laude from Harvard University with a B.S. degree in 1968 and was first in his physics class. He attended the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley and received a Ph.D. in 1972, and held a lectureship at Princeton University in 1973. During the Vietnam War, Kaku completed his US Army basic training at Fort Benning, Georgia and his advanced infantry training at Fort Lewis, Washington.[2] However, the Vietnam War ended before he was deployed as an infantryman.

  • Time does not control them. If it did then they could simply move to a different time zone. It's the environment that controls their actions.
