Reviews"A brilliant best-seller. . . . Lucidly analyzes the tenets of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism to show their striking parallels with the latest discoveries in cyclotrons."-New York Magazine "A pioneering book of real value and wide appeal."-Washington Post "Fritjof Capra, in The Tao of Physics , seeks . . . an integration of the mathematical world view of modern physics and the mystical visions of Buddha and Krishna. Where others have failed miserably in trying to unite these seemingly different world views, Capra, a high-energy theorist, has succeeded admirably. I strongly recommend the book to both layman and scientist."-V. N. Mansfield, Physics Today "I have been reading the book with amazement and the greatest interest, recommending it to everyone I meet, and as often as possible, in my lectures. I think [Capra has] done a magnificent and extremely important job."-Joseph Campbell, "A brilliant best-seller. . . .

Enlightening
For people who are of the strange combination of mystic and "hard" scientist, this is an amazing discovery and easy to read. Lots of ideas I had, but kept to myself. Both mystics and scientists, on the whole, are convinced that their own special world view is the ONLY one and that science and mysticism have NOTHING in common. I never believed that, but I don't like getting into heated arguments over issues that are seemingly predeterminedly hardwired into the brains of far too many people. I smiled and chuckled out loud a few times and did a lot of head nodding. It's cool. Read it. ENJOY it! Life is an amazing phenomenon...if it IS a separate phenomenon!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
