It's interesting that so many of Dr. Capra's observations--scientific/metaphysical musings on the interrelation of matter, energy, mind, and God--are almost commonplace today. Capra himself, in great part, deserves the credit for this. However, listening to these complex and intricate concepts is no easy task despite Michael McConnohie's earnest efforts to make them sound accessible. THE TAO OF PHYSICS is a fine book, but a difficult audiobook. The concepts are about as easy to absorb as Sanskrit algebra this way--listeners are recommended to review basic molecular physics before listening!

Book Description

"Science does not need mysticism and mysticism does not need science, but man needs both." -Fritjof Capra, Ph.D.Their paths to the truth could not be more different-but the amazing thing is that, in their own ways, the mystics and the scientists are discovering the same truths about our world. In non-technical language, with no complex mathematics or formulae, this thought-provoking program explores the main concepts and theories of modern physics, the revelations coming from particle accelerators and laboratories-and compares them with the ancient tenets of Hinduism, Buddhism and Taoism. In the process, we gain a clear and fascinating picture of how such seemingly disparate areas of thought are ultimately quests for the same kind of understanding.”
