Description
Our clinging to the mechanistic world view of Newton and Descartes has brought us perilously close to destruction. Fritjof Capra shows how these ideas are now obsolete and looks forward to a new vision more consistent with the findings of modern physics, as described in his innovative and controversial bestseller, The Tao of Physics: a holistic, systems-based approach which in this book he extends to include important areas of contemporary life - medicine, psychology, economics, political science and ecology as well as physics. We are in effect at a 'turning point' in all aspects of our culture.
