Beyond Einstein takes readers on an exciting excursion into the discoveries that have led scientists to the brightest new prospect in theoretical physics today -- superstring theory. What is superstring theory and why is it important? This revolutionary breakthrough may well be the fulfillment of Albert Einstein's lifelong dream of a Theory of Everything, uniting the laws of physics into a single description explaining all the known forces in the universe. Co-authored by one of the...

More About Beyond Einstein: The Cosmic Quest for the Theory of the Universe
More of an overview than an in-depth discussion of theoretical physics and string theory. This book endeavors to pave a way towards the thought that string theory is the culmination of hundreds of years of scientific exploration but it reads more like a history lesson. It suffers from a lack of a binding principle or a strong thesis.... I read this in high school, and recently picked it up again to re-learn about string theory. It's good for a popular audience, but it doesn't go deep enough into the details to give a really solid understanding of the issues. It's also somewhat out of date; check out Smolin's The Trouble with Physics for a more recent (though pessimistic)... A very good book. Michiu Kaku and Jeniffer Trainer give the readers a comprehensive discussion on the theories of the universe and the history, chronology and evolution of the Unified Field Theory (from Newton's gravitational force to Einstein's theory of relativity to the String theory).
