Quantum physics for the layman

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"".

Reviews for The Dancing Wu Li Masters: An Overview of the New Physics

It was either this book, or Fritjof Capra's Tao of Physics, to balance the Einstein inclusion. I chose this because the New York Times described it as 'the most exciting intellectual adventure since Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance which was another contender for this page. Whereas most of Einstein's attempts to explain life and the universe will never be fathomed by the layperson, Zukav makes it entertaining and understandable - linking hard science with modern psychology and Eastern mysticism. Although a little outdated scientifically, he succeeds in showing that how you should depend on more than just your senses and observations to understand the universe. (Kirkus UK)
