New Insane Neurotechnology Projects and Everything in Michio Kaku’s ‘Future of the Mind’ book
Human brain is the most powerful and complex of all organs in the body. The brain cells have often times been likened to the universe, as a vast volume with so many interconnections and energy flows.Michio Kaku’s ‘Future of the mind’ is one of the books that opened my eyes to certain human endeavours which sought to elevate the human mind. Written in a such a way that you may never want to put it down once you start reading it. Actually everything discussed in the book begin to make more sense as time passes by and certain events in our world unfolds.
Michio addressed the evolutionary phases of the human brain and the hard questions of human consciousness in an excellent way with his so called space-time theory concept, borrowing ideas and principles from his field of specialization — theoretical physics.
The book ‘Future of the mind’ was more of a narrative about where neurotechnology may be taking the world to in the future. Michio interacted and engaged with prominent scientist, all leaders in their field, who were trying to answer crazy questions, and told their stories, dreams, motivations and expectations in the most compelling way ever. One of the captivating revelation was the possibilities of boosting intelligence of anybody at anytime drawing inspiration from the brain structure and conditions of super genius like people who had savant syndrome. Other hot topics such as the development of self aware robots, building a brain from scratch, telepathy and telekinesis were also cleverly discussed.
