See all formats and editions

Here is the book that brought the mystical implications of subatomic physics to popular consciousness for the very first timeway back in 1975.

Many books have been written in the ensuing years about the connections between quantum theory and the ideas of Buddhism, Hinduism, and Taoism, but Fritjof Capras Tao of Physics serves as the foundation on which the others have been built, and its wisdom has stood the test of time.

Its publication in more than twenty-three languages stands as testimony to its universal applicability, and its astonishing three and a half decades of strong sales to its enduring significance.

This special edition celebrates the thirty-fifth anniversary of this early Shambhala best seller that has gone on to become a true classic.

It includes a fresh cover design and a new preface by the author reflecting on further discoveries and developments in the years since the books original publication."Physicists do not need mysticism," Dr. Capra says, "and mystics do not need physics, but humanity needs both." Its a message of timeless importance.
