The Tao of Physics: An Exploration of the Parallels between Modern Physics and Eastern Mysticism


Drawing parallels between science and spirituality is a subtle art. Fritjof Capra, a physicist by academia, connects the hazy dots between physics and spirituality to build a concrete case in its support in this book. Published first in 1975, 'The Tao of Physics' explores the underlying meaning of everything from atoms and molecules to cyclotrons. On one hand, Dr. Capra explains the functioning of the world of the science of physics and on the other, he connects it with the teachings and beliefs of religions like Buddhism and Hinduism. This piece of work by Dr. Capra is basically a celebration of the long-studied association between science and mysticism. It opens a new realm of thinking for readers and thinkers who find similarities between words of the ancient mystics and revelations of the scientific world.
