"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."—

"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
