I think Michio Kaku deserves a recognition for his efforts in explaining things in a way that non scientific people can understand. That's not easy. We need more like him.
- xelxebar 9y agoKaku mostly tells stories with cosmology and futuristic buzzwords these days. If you want to excite the imagination of a child and foster interest in science, I find his stuff potentially useful. However, the actual educational content is pretty poor. I used to love Kaku as a kid. I read his book Hyperspace several times in elementary school and even ended up buying a string theory graduate text out of the induced enthusiasm. That book was scary impenetrable to me at the time. Lol Now Kaku's videos and stuff just leave a bad taste in my mouth. It fells like he mostly sells science as some magical mysterious thing that is only accessible to the intelligentsia elite.
- CryptoPunk 9y agoThe difficulty of explaining complex concepts in a way that a laymen can understand is underappreciated.
