 A very hard book for me to understand the purpose/message April 27, 2008
I tried to read this book, as I have really enjoyed all other books by Gary Zukav. This was the exception. I just couldn't get through the entire book, so maybe I missed the point or message of the book. It was not easy reading.

A classic in this genre January 14, 2008
One of my favorites along with The Tao of Physics. If you like discussions bringing Western physics and Taoism together you should enjoy this.
 Quantum Mechanics for the layperson January 9, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
He says that QM without the math is pure wonderment at the Universe. Fascinating book. I read every book I can find on QM, now, because I first read this book. I am listening to it on CD right now. I see a lot of criticism of this kind of popularization of difficult technical material. To those people, I say, do a better job. SInce you haven't done that better job to date, I am reading this book, and enjoying every minute of it. Reading this book is an exercise in fascination. If school was taught the way this book is written, there would be no absenteeism.
Quantum discoveries and insight into conciousness December 31, 2007
Bought this book from "Borders" though i normally buy from Amazon. Wonderful book for laymen like me to understand the course of modern Physics. Many experiments were very lucidly elaborated which helps us understand their conclusion in an easy way. I liked especially the Special Theory of Relativity section. Author clearly seems to indicate that "sense" perception does not lead to "complete truth". Perception is specific to "observer" and what is "intended to be observed".
A man and woman walking at a distance may be thought about as many things by many observers like a child may think it is its parents, a lover may imagine two lovers, a homosexual may think of the peculiarities of the world whilst a social worker may wonder how to make marriages successful and so on and so forth.
A holistic picture of the whole universe may be gotten by "intuition" rather than observation.
That the author suggests that the world is already perfect is a very rewarding observation. Everything is perfect in its own way. That we project our ideas about perfection onto the world and hence its "imperfection" is a sure statement and also avers the religious doctrines which suggest that imperfection cannot come from perfection... viz. God
The book is highly recommended for scientific but open minds which allow the magic of the world to trickle into their conciousness.
The whole world is filled with divine consciousness and miracles, paranormal phenomena, unadulterated love, extra sensory perception, vision, intuition are some of its attributes. What activates the senses, what projects the world into the mirror of the mind, what likes and dislikes, lives and dies, what fears and what is eternal are some questions that need to be asked. Consciousness is the answer.
Do particles like photons, sub atomic ones have consciousness? Looks like they do. The whole world is filled with it... why not them?
Read this one without fail and open yourself to the extraordinary spectacle called "WORLD"!
