A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This is an account of the essential aspects of the new physics for those with little or no knowledge of mathematics or science. It describes current theories of quantum mechanics, Einstein's special and general theories of relativity and other speculations, alluding throughout to parallels with modern psychology and metaphorical abstractions to Buddhism and Taoism. The author has also written "The Seat of the Soul".

Revue de presse

"The most exciting intellectual adventure I've been on since reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" (Christophre Lehmann-Haupt New York Times)

"Recommended highly, both for those who want to understand the essential significance of modern physics and for those who are concerned with its implications for the possible transformation of the human consciousness" (Times Literary Supplement)
